I agree. I think almost everyone did it back in the day. Myself included. But times are changing rapidly and so are links and how they are perceived by Search Engines.

Yahoo most definitely does NOT like outgoing home page links.

I would caution all of our Members against Home Page links or any link exchanges at this time.

REW is again under a new Google penalty for yet another link scheme. It is not clear yet if that penalty will be passed through to REW clients yet.

Until more is known about what to and not to do with linking I strongly suggest we just abide by the Google's Webmaster Guidelines.

Just my 2¢ worth,
