Matt Cutts Gets Social Engineered into Admitting Links Are Important

After years of beating around the bush, Cutts finally makes the statement all SEO’s have dreamed of hearing.

That being said, it’s still extremely important to focus on a long-term marketing strategy versus straight link building (short-term), especially for those trying to become real brands.
