Hmmm Wouldnt take too much to assume those are affiliate banners and we all know how the search engines feel about affiliate banners….
I just thought this was very unfair when i read about it elsewhere.
I did wonder whether serving ones own graphics for banners would solve out the the potential problem but came to the conclusion that the search engines would read the links, read the page the link links to, find thousands of links pointing to the identical content residing after 1 url and decipher aff links anyhow.
If that makes sense..
I take it I am over estimating the ability or want for search engines to seek out aff links?
