With a Google PageRank of 7, how could they not be ranked number one for a simple search of “Text-Link-Ads” (excluding advertisements). Many have argued that there are tons of sites that are not penalize for paid links — and they are right — until their site is caught by Google.
Now, if your site has been penalized, you can submit a reconsideration request and the penalty will probably be lifted as long as you include important details in your submission (i.e., date of ad placement, where, what site, etc.).
