Check out these Internet Marketing articles, they are some of my favorites from this week on Links.HubSpot.com.

Consumers Suspicious of Sponsored Links (Firepow.com) My favorite quote: ""Prior research had noted a bias against sponsored links, but the question remaining was whether sponsored links were as good as organic links.

That investment delivers long term dividends far beyond a one time promotional program using direct marketing tactics."
