You can link to them though, use a trackback or pingback, which is normal practice for blogs. I see you use wordpress too so it should be a cinch. Thanks, John.

Google doesn't judge, indeed doesn't know, whether you've paid someone to do your web marketing for you or not. And I would say you are doing the right thing by getting professionals to do it for you – Google certainly won't 'mind'. However, Google can spot, doesn't like and will 'object' to webpages that try unfairly, by using so-called Black Hat (aka unethical or spamdexing) techniques to get an unreasonably high position in its search results. No reputable company will use these techniques, and anyway I believe they have quite low 'survival value' (which is the subject of an upcoming article). If you are worried your Web Marketing company might be using unethical SEO techniques, which could put your site's listing in peril, simply ask them to confirm in an email that the methods they are employing are Google approved White Hat techniques. This way you have recourse if the worst occurs. Thanks Dustin.
