Drinks For Links?

I was at the Online Reputation Monitoring session at SES San Jose yesterday where Andy Beal was the last to speak. Because there was not much time left in the session, he had to rush his presentation. Therefore he jokingly asked how many bloggers were in the audience. Many of us raised our hands and he told us that we were all his favorite bloggers and that if we told our readers how great his presentation was, He’d buy us a drink at the bar, concluding, “that’s how you ensure a good reputation among bloggers”.

While we all saw the joke, unfortunately for Andy, Rand Fishkin and Greg Jarboe thought it would be a good opportunity to link-bomb him with the phrase “drinks for links”. So I join the fray as well…

drinks for links.

So, how long do you think it will take before Andy’s site comes up first for this phrase? Depending on how many others join the bombing effort, I’d say a couple of weeks. It’s all in good fun!
