Not because I have to pay, but they market it as COMPLETELY free. They have different upgrade options, though. Up to 50,000 pageloads. What are you gonna do when you get twenty times that number - or even more? Seriously, though - This program is great.

Misc Stuff and Reads
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/01/31/link_spamer_interview/
This is an interesting thread http://www.threadwatch.org/node/4091 about sites ripping off content and then outranking the original author. Not too sure what you can do to protect yourself from this, but as you start publishing more and more content I think one will become a target for people to rip off content from.
