Say site A and site B had a recip. link but site A removed their link to site B and therefore made the link from B back to A one-way only - is it anyones guess that this link would suddenly have strong one-way link credit or would Google be smart enough to know that it was previously a recip. and that site A may have removed the link just to boost their credit? Surely a clever algorithm would know it was previously a recip. but I have seen a website jump over (may be coincidence) as soon as they took our link off.

Id G sees it before you remove your end, it'll just appear to be a one-way link.

Trouble is two-fold:

1 - if they did see the recip, then you removed it, you come off looking like a doink, and they don't like doinks... wink

2 - if the other site sees the link is gone, yours will be toast shortly, too, negating that one way that was "built"

IMO, this is simply a bas practice - webmasters talk and are happy to spread the word to others about folks who play games liek this. wink

What happened to us is that we asked for them to re-add the link and they did...but it seemed like the damage had already been done as they (possibly quite by co-incidence) leapt over us and since putting it back it hasn't changed anything.

Don't sweat it - G will sort it out in time, I think.

Could also be another reason why they have recently obtained a higher ranking than you, too. wink

Let's hope so.

In the mean time, anyone know a way a commercial website could get a one-way authority link from a .edu or .ac.uk??? ;-)
