There was a panicked discussion thread at Google Webmaster Help forums recently. The person who initiated the discussion wrote:
"Today I found that my entire site has dropped out of site in search results. I have a site that received over 2,000 search visits per day and today that has stopped."
Apparently, he had a bunch of affiliate links on his site. These are links to other sites that he would make money on if someone clicked on the link and bought something on the affiliate site.
With this in mind, it's a good time to refresh your memories on the Google Paid Links policy.
Buying or selling links that pass PageRank violates Google's Webmaster guidelines and can negatively impact a site's ranking in search results
