Welcome to the Q&A Forum

thanks for your comment

I heard paid links are not good.

My business is wedding related e-commerce.  There are some wedding directory site out there and I need to paid them in order to put my links there.  Are these directory links also count as paid links?  Is it bad for SEO?  I saw some popular wedding sites put their sites there too.

BTW, is Yahoo , botw or business.com directory treated as paid link?

Thanks,

Hon
