AKA you may want to consider the above also when looking at your back links.
I heard this story too (or read somewere) before and it could make sence.
I do have a lot of "footer" trades, however all the sites that are ranked in the top 10 for the keywords i got punished for do use an exact same strategy when it comes do "footer" trades.
I know the sites, most of them are people i do business with for over 6 years. Same work, same type of sites, same way of trading.
Only difference is that i got spammed on forums and they don't..
