He works for Lendio and tends to feature companies they sell leads to. So it's great that he's also a forbes contributor but take each story with a grain of salt.

This should've been a commercial on late night public access....I found nothing noteworthy in that article. Sean, I find your articles in the magazine more informational.

A Peek Into Stephen Sheinbaum's Crystal Ball: A Look At The Future Of Small Business
Lendio is going to create a bunch of pissed off Merchants in short order. They have what is supposed to be an educational PDF for download where they ply businesses with incorrect information. Just as an example, the call MCAs loans where the merchant can "borrow" money at an interest rate of 18% to 22%. First, the range isnt even accurate if it was an "interest rate". MCAs arent loan and the money isnt borrowed! Thats just one example. Going in behind that trying to educate a merchant and tell them the "expert advice" they received was wrong is going to create problems. Obviously its designed to get the merchant to apply, but what happens if the end up getting a factor of 1.35 and think that they are getting screwed because Lendio claimed "interest" was in the range of 18 to 22%? Bad Ju Ju in my opinion and reeks of Bait & Switch tactics!

A Peek Into Stephen Sheinbaum's Crystal Ball: A Look At The Future Of Small Business
That too! Back in the early 90s I had what was once the largest online mortgage banking firm in the country. My company had two sides LendingPad.com which originated residential and commercial mortgages in 48 States. LenderPad.com generated leads for the likes of BOA, Wells Fargo, Suntrust, IndyMac, and more. I had to upgade from a Broker License to a Lender license and obtain multistate licensing just to be in compliance to generate leads in other states. Lendio will, mark my words, find themselves in Compliance Hell if they dont make some changes post haste.

Wrong actually. That alone was the case before the penguin update, but since, one of the changes is that a link to a high ranking page alone does not give you ranking, the link has to be engaged by unique users. If you add links to your site that no one clicks, it poisons your site.

Franklin is confusing links to your site (from high ranking sites) with links from your site to other sites. The first method is EARNED links (good) and the second one is UNEARNED links (bad).

What I'm saying is that it now takes more than a simple link to a high ranking page to achieve consistent rankings, earned or unearned.
There are certain activities required now as well as far as clicks, votes, anchor text, on page location, and other aspects that you would identify with webmaster tools and analytics, and knowing where the Google juice is coming from.
