It bothered me too, that there is no mention of neg SEO.

A company I work for, was punished under penguin, for what appears to be 1,000 highly spammy, likely automated links. The 1,000 links all target 4-5 keywords over 4-5 pages.

Penguin hit them hard, from 80,000 uniques a day to 40,000. Yet the site is unquestionably the authority of it's niche and I'd have thought 1,000 spammy links would neither of helped nor hindered but clearly somebody is out their, laughing their socks off.

I have high hopes for this tool, but I have a feeling I'm going to be left underwhelmed.
