Yahoo Answers is shutting down on May 4th, 2021 (Eastern Time) and beginning April 20th, 2021 (Eastern Time) the Yahoo Answers website will be in read-only mode. There will be no changes to other Yahoo properties or services, or your Yahoo account. You can find more information about the Yahoo Answers shutdown and how to download your data on this help page.

Who paid and who didn't ?

Google's new SEO policies penalize sites for paid links. But how do they know??? Or, are they just penalizing everyone? HOW DOES GOOGLE KNOW?

Update:

"Google Controls the World" is probably the BEST answer, but it's NOT CORRECT ... it's WRONG

Update 2:

JASON SAID :

> Google couldn't find if you buy links from "looking natural site"

> else it can easily find your paid link..

Aside from rough grammar, and not making sense, Jason's answer is ALSO WRONG.

Yahoo does not have a "WRONG ANSWER" button, and forces the user to vote for the right answer or BEST answer even if none are given.
