One thing I would like to ask...you say.. "paid links still played a part in many SEO strategies, largely because they worked. That is beginning to change now" I would disagree, if paid links are from quality and relevant sites they will still work? From your article you rightly infer that most paid links are spammy, irrelevant sites and for sure these will not work well in the future, especially for competitive phrases. Good post.

Paid for links and directory listings will decrease in value - as anyone can get these. Inbound links from blogs, review, forums and recommendations I think will carry a heavier weighting - as that's part of the overall update which is part of the overall strategy as building your brand as an authority on your niche.
