Hello madsaxon,

* madsaxon <madsaxon () direcway com> [2004-01-30 18:59]:
how does such a google bombing work?

Hi Nico,

One of the ways Google determines ranking is by how many
links exist to a given site or object. 

it was my first idea, but the dimension of links needed i thought is to
big.
has anybody got a link to a website with such a link?

If you convince a number
of people to provide a link from the word "bastards"
pointing to www.sco.com, Google assumes it's a popular site
for that topic and ranks it accordingly.

thank you.
cheers nico
