Topic: Google "failure"

Don't have any idea how these guys managed this ... but ... google "failure" and you'll see
an actual website as the 1st one.

Too funny.

Re: Google "failure"

'miserable failure' gets the same results. This has little to do with Google themselves, although everything to do with how their algorithms work.

This was created using what has become known as a 'Google bomb', where hundreds or even thousands of websites & bloggers all link to the same website using a particular word or phrase. In this case it was 'miserable failure'.

When Google ranks websites or webpages it considers the words contained within any links to that particular site to be an important factor. So when you have thousands of people all linking to George Bush's biography using the words 'miserable failure' in the link text, then Google comes to the conclusion that it must be the most important website in the world about 'miserable failure.

Nice! VERY interesting! You have 'Dubya' (OBVIOUSLY), but then there's Michael Moore, but then there's SCIENCE! wow. sciencedirect[dot]com. Funny how science would be one of them. Science being one of the biggest failures of today's society . . .
