Slashdot Mirror
How To Get Googled, By Hook Or By Crook
Mr. Christmas Lights continues: "So some folks in the SEO community decided to have a 2 month contest where they made up a nonsense keyword phrase (nigritude ultramarine), and they will award a iPod and a 17" LCD (big spenders, eh?) to whoever ends up #1 in Google a month and two months from now - read more contest details at Dark Blue's SEOChallenge and follow the progress at www.seochallenge.com.
As you can imagine, there will be all sorts of wild web pages out there - for example, take a look at this "optimized" URL for nigritude ultramarine : www.nigritude-ultramarine.com/nigritude-ultramarin e/nigritude-ultramarine.asp and I'm sure there will be plenty of other entertaining entries - you can do a Google Search yourself to see who's currently on top.
Note to Slashdot Editors: I have NOT entered the contest - buncha SEO pro's are involved and a hobbiest (at best) like me (who doesn't stray over to the dark side - I like Google! ;-) would get spanked."
How about posting an article on slashdot? That will get you on google in no time flat!

Programming is like sex... Make one mistake and support it the rest of your life.
Are entries rejected from the contest if they are using dubious tactics? It's fairly easy to go about spamming links all over the place with the appropriate link texts and stuff like invisible text, which still aren't adequately detected.

The current 3rd result showcases the "Nigritude Ultramarine Fighting Force" who are "doing our part for the department of homeland security." Actually, I suspect they might be even more capable than said department...
He say 1 and 1 and 1 is 3, got to be good lookin' cause hes so hard to see...
I'm sure their techniques will cause google to make such tricks harder in the future. Many of you are familiar with people creating nonsense link pages to drive their own rating up and the various things google put in place to make this harder. Now they need a contest on how to get delisted, I still have a domain name that hasn't been used in 3 years that is in google.

This is the very first story in the Google topic BTW.
The IT section color scheme sucks.
It surely is a nice project with some very fancy prizes, but has anyone thought of what Google's response is going to be?! Wham! Thanks for telling us the techniques to beat our own system guys - we'll now be altering it so that this is no longer a problem. :S
But I think I ought to raise a problem with Google, which this contest simply serves to underline: Google is too easily gamed. After all, just take a look at what the bloggers have done for the phrase "miserable failure". All it takes is an aggrieved group of a couple of dozen individuals and they can push anything up the ranks of Google. It's not that hard to knock someone's rank down by a bit just by getting a bunch of people to delink them. When Google recaches, their rank falls...

Dark Blue being an advertising agent...surely the techniques of the winner will end up in some sort of ad scheme...
1. Don't worry about your sig. Slashdot has them turned off on the pages that Google indexes.
2. Google does index the story entries, so if you submit one, and you include a web page, make your "submitter name" the words you want indexed. Feel free to include other links in the story submission to your site if it fits.
3. Post "Informative" things with links in them using keywords.
4. Make sure you use the website feature of your profile, every post you write will have a link to it.
This should be obligatory reading, followed by this . It's amazing how many people are paying search engine optimizers to tell them what these links says.
Who gets the prize money then? :-D
Everybody, link back here!

The main secret is to search for a certain phrase, and then analyse the top results. This tells you things such as if the phrase boldened up to 3 times in the page helps, but maybe, for example, if it is boldened more than 3 times, it isn't counted so effectively. The title, the META tags, the page, H1-5 tags, bold etc, all count. But you have to work out how many you can put before Google thinks you're just trying to boost your ratings.

Hack the contest. Googlebomb "nigritude ultramarine" to http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/05/09/184021 7 . That's this article, stripped of all the other crap.
I'm planning on doing it, and I'm not a Google monster, but I'm not a Google slouch either; I have a pretty decent amount of Google juice for a one-man site.
Note that mostly likely, links from Slashdot to Slashdot won't count any, so no point in linking in comments here.
Because as we all know, Google is a marketing tool designed to drive as many visitors to your website as possible.
It's people like this that are killing Google, and the usefulness of search engines in general.
It is a good thing that no google engineers read slashdot.org, and that even if they did, they would never want to mess up a competition between people who professionally abuse their service regarding who is best at it...
If I were google, I would wait until the day before the deadline and then link the top hit for nigritude ultramarine to google.com.
In fact, to help them, I suggest that everybody who thinks that "SEO pros" are a life form somewhere below pond-scum and above spammers, ought to help them. nigritude ultramarine.
No insurance companies do such policies. You can ensure it though.

Is it just me or does the name nigritude ultramarine seem a little racially suspect. hmmmmm?
and I'm the second result. There's no secret for getting ranked high when your web-site doesn't suck. You just let Google do its thing.
"DirectX SDKs" and I'm on the first page of results. Although it's going to the Distribution section (pay per CD) instead of the SDK download section which is free access.
"Digital Black Market" also gets me a spot in the top 20. I used to be ranked higher on that one.
Before the site wide overhaul I was ranked 2nd when searching for "Driver Library" but if you're looking for a specific file and I have it, I'll get a top ranking.
Google is currently reindexing my site. It'll probably be another month or so before everything is indexed as well as it was before. Last check there was about a half a million files on the web-site.
Domain, directory, file name, content is about the general chain of importance for getting a high ranking.

you know, regardless of attempts to game the system, if every slashdot reader just linked to this slashdot story from their respective websites, then Slashdot would win easily with a standard PageRank. No amount of gaming the system can overtake sheer force of numbers. It's like the Howard Dean approach to raising money :)

The whole point of a "search engine" from day one was to help connect people with what they are looking for. To that end, the HTML "META" tag was invented, so that you could give keywords relevant to what your page is about.
Enter the marketing scumbags. They just want as many eyeballs to see a page, whether it's relevant or not. And so, in short time, the META tag became completely meaningless. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Google ignores the META tag completely.
And so Google started checking links, because if somebody links to some page, it's probably useful.
Cue the marketing scumbags again. Tons of fake pages with fake links, all intended to fool the search engine.
And so they keep trying to find new ways to fuck around with Google and all us people who just want to find what WE want rather than what some marketer wants.
And in typical marketing scumbag fashion, they call this let's-screw-google nonsense "optimization".
God I hate marketers. They're worse scum than lawyers, pimps and pushers IMNSHO.
I had a similar(read: identical) contest going on my website two weeks ago! This thread shows how i tried to link Vector Desist to my website, just for the hell of it. Oh well. This contest did 2 things better though... They did it as a true competition, while we did it just on our own website. And second, there words are more non-sensical, so you don't have to compete with existing page rankings

I used to like hotbot before they got eaten by Lycos. They used Inktomi's engine, which I think MSN licensed for a while.
nlsearch had cool features, but died out. (I think they sell their engine for enterprise use at northernlight.com).
altavista was cool when it was run by DEC (which got ate by Compaq, which was swallowed by HP).
next?
It's gotten to the point that any word beginning with "nig" sounds racist to me. The word niggardly has gotten several people in hot water the last few years.
First hit for 'zcat' on almost every search engine I've checked. I also rank quite highly for other stuff I do. Most of my pagerank comes from having my URL on message boards like slashdot..

Reminds me of the "President of the Internet." The idea there is that the person with the highest Google ranking for that term is the current President.
When I'm doing a search and getting tons of crap hits from certain domains, I wish there was an option to filter them out of the search. Then maybe could start to get some hits like the web was a few years back.
Yes, I know you can filter a domain in the advanced, but that seems like only one domain you could exclude and even if you could chain more, you'd have to do it before the search. I want it during the search.
I am the champion title holder there.
Yay.
The funny thing is I have no idea how I got there.

I think it would be useful to add an article to Wikipedia about nigritude ultramarine, giving links to Google and Slashdot.
Of all the random letters and words they could have generated, the use of an "N" "G" "R" word is very wierd. Either these people live in some kind of social and intellectual bubble... (most likely), or else what....?
Here are some words that I wouldn't choose too.
Mithorfickur.... cantlickir... etc.
"nigritude" is just one weird choice. Why would they choose it? It isn't random letters... it has the feel of English.
I think it's a bad choice, since presumably they just want something neutral... but maybe brushing up against words that have negative cultural connotations is how you take a boring nonesense word and make it interesting...
Seems like a really bad choice.... and it is reinforced by the use of a "color" word as the second word... ultramarine is a color, and so this cues the mind to think of color, which, in a different sense, is also implicit in the letters of the first word.
Very odd, and surely a poor choice for the purpose at hand.
Oh, I agree that criticism about the use of the word "niggardly" ("miserly") is pure ignorance... but I also bow to the fact that we live in an ignorant society and I would avoid using it because I wish to communicate and, really, how often do you really need to say "niggardly" to make your point?
You don't, ever, need to use it. And you don't need to choose a word like "nigritude" as a "random" word either. You just don't.
We might as well be discussing a rule for eliminating "dubious" entries from a contest for who can pull off the biggest stock fraud scheme.
What comes to mind is a strip of the old comic strip "Ernie". This strip has a running gag about a local group called the "Pirhana club" which has a yearly "Pirhana of the Year" contest which is literally a yearly award to whichever of the members can be the biggest sleazeball.
There's one character in the strip named "Uncle Sid" who wins the contest every year. He's just that much of an asshole.
One year, as the Pirhana of the Year award approached, the strip chronicled various members of the club working overtime to get the award. Sid, though, did nothing, just sitting in the bar, oblivious and drinking while the other members of the club bragged to him about how they were certain to win this year.
And on the strip on the day of the award ceremony, the readers were shown various members of the club around the room, explaining to the person next to them why they're certain they're going to win. A member of the city council brags about demanding kickbacks from an orphanage to retain their funding. A doctor brags about defrauding patients by charging them for surgery he anesthesised them for but did not perform for nonexistent ailments. A used car salesman brags about selling a set of totally nonfunctional cars to a nunnery. And as the announcer calls out "THE WINNER.. IS.. SID", the camera pans to Uncle Sid explaining to Ernie that he stuffed the ballot box.
The next strip simply showed the other lead contenders confronting Sid and demanding to know, "How did you win? What did you do?" And Sid responds, "I cheated. I stuffed the ballot box and bribed the judges."
The disheartened response, after a brief pause was "Damn, you're good."

As written in the original post, first in the list is still http://www.nigritude-ultramarine.com/nigritude-ult ramarine/nigritude-ultramarine.asp.
No wonder that the tricky domain name, directory and file naming has a lot to do with it. And it just makes sense actually...
Are you suggesting that, in response to a "nigritude ultramarine" search google should conciously avoid pages with such naming? :)
Feel free to mod this as off topic but I am very impressed with the authors site: nigritude ultramarine. Those are some impressive Christmas lights!
1) make a web page.
2) get people to link to it, with the query words in the link.
3) lots of people.
For example, google for "monkeys".
Top hit: bdmonkeys.net (my band)
Now if you look at that page, "monkeys" only shows up FOUR times in the source: the page name, the meta keyword, an IMG ALT tag, and the email.
Now google for "battle cry".
Top hit: the blog meme Chaz wrote that LINKS TO OUR SITE WITH THE WORD "MONKEYS".
561823649174 bloggers linking to you = top google position.
comes moronic results. look at the first page for their phone word now... here
See previous post's reference to simoniger and the 'convenient' GNAA link in this post.
Ow, I always though google was programmed in Python.
Hasn't http://www.nigritude-ultramarine.com/nigritude-ult ramarine/nigritude-ultramarine.asp already won by virtue of their URL?
... you get all those pages that people link to in "to view this file, download the viewer _here_" type links. Search result number one is the download page for Adobe Reader :).
See for yourself here.
If you look through the results, it seems that most webpages just took a template of some business, product, or organization and just changed all the keywords to Nigritude and Ultramarine, the two desired.
This gave me the idea to make my own Nigritude Ultramarine contest site, which basically took a BBC article about a spacecraft getting photos of a Saturn moon, and changed everything into the two keywords desired.
I prefer this one: The Nigritude Ultramarine Blog
We've been trying numerous optimizations to win the #1 spot for 'science forums'... but oddly enough we kept losing to sites were often not even directly relevant to the query. Eventually we brought in some optimizations just to the pages of the site to bring things up.
Well, we now have the number one spot... but since we did nothing as far as increasing mentions on the other sites, the question arises how of how much weight Google really puts on external references to your site.
This technique of gaming is also a technique akin to spamming. I maintain a blog on my website www.geofffox.com (I want a higher rank too). It's a small affair averaging 400-500 guests a day, each looking at a few pages. I know that Google results are the single biggest referrer to my site! But sites with no legitimate traction know that Google can work for them too. So, every day or so, I get 'comment spam.' An automated system will hit my site with a comment. The comment, of course, includes his URL. Sometimes the comments are obviously commercial (usually porn or drugs), but often they are socially engineered to blend in. These would include comments like: "I couldn't agree with you more." or "Nice point." Again, these innocuous posts are accompanied by porn or drug URLs. Most of the time they come from Russian IP addresses. Though I don't post those who link to my site, others do... and so I often see what look like referrals in my log, from porn sites. Following the link back shows I wasn't mentioned at all (Let's not talk about my career in adult films). Google rank has become so valuable that these businesses on the margin of legitimacy probably feel they have no other choice if they wish to be found. Damn shame.
As alluded in the "Note to Slashdot Editors" (thought they would prune that), I first want to emphasize I have NO relationships with the folks running this content - I just think it is hilarious, although it will certainly provide some insights into how Google works, and we'll see all sorts of whacky things from the SEO pro's - again, I am not one of 'em.
Second, I hadn't thought about Slashdot ranking 1st for the contest as some have suggested - now that would be a crackup! Unfortunately, Slashdot won't allow you to place in IMG tag in a post (a requirement of the contest is a small image on the page), plus I'm not a member of the SearchGuild, so I'm not elgible ... maybe Cmdr Taco or Timothy need an iPod and/or 17" LCD - go for it! ;-)
Third, you know the folk at Google have gotten wind of this contest, and if I were them, I'd put a link on the main page to their own nigritude ultramarine page. I.e. Google should NOT tinker with their algorithms, but with a link from their PR10 main page, that certainly should shoot 'em up in the rankings. I gotta wonder if the pre-IPO Google would do this - we'll see with the "new" Google ;-)
Fourth, I appreciate some of the comments from folks about my Christmas Lights and the Christmas Webcam with webcontrol (yes, you can turn the lights ON and OFF via the web) which actually been on Slashdot before - in fact, you can read my Slashdot Effect Analysis from last year. I assure you it should be MUCH more interesting this year, as due to some multi-threaded optimizations, I think I'll be able to reduce the throttle from minimum 5-second updates to 1-second updates. I'm going to have to be REALLY NICE to my neighbors, 'cause it will be quite the flickering light show in December/2004 ... although I usually fire it up for a test-run in October as part of my Halloween Decorations and Lights.

P.S. One thing slight off-topic is the Google Compute project which I thought I mention to those Slashdotters with idle CPU time that want to help the Stanford Folding@Home project - this really is a good cause.

Hey, this is even on topic!
I had some search terms for that come up in my site stats last month. I tracked it down to a user on my forums who posted a link to Microsoft's support site that fixed something simple, and he linked the text with "morons click here." So now when you search for that term, Microsoft is the first entry.
-JemOne easy way to grab attention is to intentionally inject commen spelling errors into your webpage.
I don't recomend this. As easy and as tempting as it is Google feeds the correct spelling.
On that note I do get the highest ranking for "Linux Destro" A mispelling of Linux Distro (Not for long.. Noticed the error and plan to fix it.)
Now for a funny.. Take a look at the winner for the correct spelling.
It's not RedHat.
I don't actually exist.
Just be the first for negritude ultramarine, and then you'll technically be the first link with Google's spelling suggestion.

Pretty much any Google search ends up with the same site as #2... it must be some kind of advertising deal or something.
In line with their "Don't be evil" motto, Google should secretly fund a contest like this...and then program in defences against all the effective techniques!
Methinks you answered your own question. If google turns "evil" and people can't find the results they want among the craphole of ads, or if Google can't continue to extract useful info, someone else will come along with a great algorithm. Just like happened to all the others.
So the higher google scores your sites, the more relevant it will score the link.
And it rendered on, until the end of its days.

compared to what I've seen at my previous job (one of the reasons to post anonymoysly). We had several products developed just to create a whole lot of pages, on different domains & IPs, that were cross-linked. That way, it wasn't too hard to be at the top of the rankings - just generate the content, put it up somewhere, and wait for a month or two ....
I'm glad I don't work there any more, and really glad that they have something other to do, and don't pull all their resouces in this.

I had (and still have, actually) an accidental top result for "Peter Griffin" in the image search. I never linked to or used the image outside a photoshop contest, and it wasn't even that good - it was the cartoon character Peter Griffin (from Family Guy) with Merv Griffin's face.
After I found out about my top placement, I started watching my log files and I was surprised to see how many messageboards have linked the image. Most of the image linking was pointless - just somebody found the image and linked directly to it, with no explanation of why it was applicable. Weird.
I really hate signatures, but go to my website.

Help keep "Pigments Through the Ages" at the top of the ultramarine world.
It seems to me with all the sites going up on this wacky search phrase, there will be lots of questions about it all. What better way to answer them that to put together a FAQ? and what better page than a FAQ to rank number one on Google? ;-)
If you have questions post them here and I'll answer them in the FAQ.
I just registered a domain and will put up the first draft of the nigritue ultramarine FAQ at www.nigritudeultramarines.com shortly. Let's see how long it takes to get into Google. Feel free to add a link from your site. (please note that ultramarines is plural in my domain name by the way)
... google news has slashdot showing up, and google groups has this guy, number #1 for nigritude ultramarine, and also the only one
It seems like a better test, or a closer aproximation of what is wanted is not the person who can be at the top at the end of 2 months, but the person who can be at the top for the highest percentage of days for two months - Google even says: We update our index about once a month. Each time we update our database of web pages, our index invariably shifts: so it seems as if it would be better to make is more an endurance test rather than a contest to see who finishes on top.
thanks just the same - wouldn't be proper ;)
good luck to the competitors, I suppose, and good luck to google in sorting junk from jelly.

Well, also I come out well with my own name, and the names of my columns or book. But it's an ego boost when I get to be #1 on terms people would actually search for. A couple I know about:

In any case nigritude ultramarine rules.
You can't handle the truth.

What's to keep an engineer (or the company) from making a special case out of the search for "nigritude ultramarine?" The day before the contest ends, they copy the pages of the top 100 to use for research and then they point the top search to whoever they want....
Ah, that would be awesome. I'd love to see all of these people trying so hard for something and they find out that they have no control over it in the end.

Having written the above, it would still be hilarious if you guys took the #1 spot for the nigritude ultramarine keyphrase ... and you had NOT signed up for the contest. There seems to be a ton of "snake oil" in the SEO business, and would be interesting to see what all those hotshot SEO guru's would say about that! ;-)
Good luck and Best Wishes,

I think mediapartners google is not the same as googlebot ....
it comes only if you have adsense on your site !
Look here: hdmahrxpqxxhp @ mailinator.com mailbox
It's a mail from some guy who set up a GoogleAd on the contest keyword.
a) many outside sites linking to your page.
b) many of the keywords used in the search to appear in the body of the text on your page.
c) lots of relevant keywords in the meta tags (not exceeding 120 I think).
d) a horseshoe lodged up your anal cavity.
Then it's just fine tuning. It's not an ancient Chinese secret.

What if everybody chose their own URL to point to for nigritude ultramarine and tried to skew the results? Never mind that MY link to nigritude ultramarine has nothing to do with nigritude ultramarine at all. Seeing enough links to my site with it looking like a link to nigritude ultramarine could be enough. Ya think?

nigritude ultramarine Black Blue (the basic meaning of nigritude ultramarine) is a very fitting name for this contest as it is kicking my ass. My nigritude ultramarine page is a sad little 200th and so this post to try and draw attention it to and/or raise its rank through this nice little linkage.
vampirical
I think with the competition becoming quite stiff for the phrase Nigritude Ultramarine the term may last longer than the developers thought when the Google SEO Challenge was conceived. And my entry for Nigritude Ultramarine
Here is the Google SEO Challenge Press Release on PRWeb.
