Why the HELL did he do this in the first place? For argument's sake, let's contrast him to another Internet Marketing niche blogger, Dosh Dosh, who took the longer (but not harder) path to building authority in Google. He released a popular wordpress theme, but his link in the footer without targeted anchor text, and then used his own keyword-rich internal linkage to dominate for keywords. Much smarter.

I’m in the process of promoting a free press release distribution site called BriefingWire.com, and I’ll make sure I do everything to stay out of Google's penalty box. Thanks. Good Stuff.

I think the guy doesn't really add any value to the subject and kind of get the feeling he's full of himself. I mean, all he really talks about is the money he's getting and he's got this cult following of people who are just obsessed with money. To tell you the truth, I don’t really like John Chow’s site.

They will eventually discover what you were up to 2. Even if they don't... a competitor of yours is going to spill the beans. Sitewide links are not a good idea and are extremely foolish in such large quantities. Baiting Google is never a good idea for several reasons. 1. They will eventually discover what you were up to 2.
