Matt Cutts has posted about how Googlebombs will no longer have an effect on Google search index. The most blatant and silly example of this was when George Bush’s whitehouse page used to show up #1 from the keywords “Miserable Failure”. Well now that the kids can no longer easily alter Google’s results you also now see George Bush’s bio ranks #1 for Great President.
Regardless of your political affiliation its pretty awesome Google has prevented the ability for GoogleBombing to effect its index.
So does this now mean that SEO contests will truly predict who has the best SEO? Well I think it takes out one element…

Shoe, I think it was “Their Miserable Failure”…
That’s too funny, from failure to great president.
What did google fix, exactly?
Its http://www.mattcutts.co.uk/blog not .com!
Lol, yeah that keyword “failure” was around for a long while actually.Anyways i recently had vanished messages in my gmail account you guys heard of that.By the way ShoeMoney i lost alot of important mail recently to what i think is a server rollback i contacted support but they not doing much. Any advise or private extension number you might have that i can call. I know google doesnt have customer support service available via phone.
Sorry I dont =(. I never used Gmail I just never gamble with free services for important stuff.
What about YahooBombs and MSNBombs? Have these two search engines failed miserably as well?
It was just “failure” no quotes eventually.
Also check out the 4th result for that Google search for “Great President”…. The Wiki for Google Bomb… interesting!
That’s hilarious. Too bad Google had to ruin everyone’s fun.
