It's October, bitches! And in this episode of Zoé 2.0 we're going to use a search engine to make fun of the masses!As you know, intelligent reader, google is set up so that the things that are googled and linked the most, are shown first on the results page. Simple enough. But also, the more popular your site is, the more power your links have on the search engine.
Here's an example. Mark starts a site called...marktalk.com. He gets a whole bunch of hits over a period of time and a whole lot of links to his site. Slowly but surely, he creeps his way up the google results page for 'Mark'. Marks friend Tim decides to start a site too named Timspeaks.com, and Mark decides that he's going to put a link to Tims site on his own. While it took Mark a long time to reach the top five of the google results page, with that one link Tim is already on the first page and creeps his way up from there.
This is why people spam popular sites like YouTube and various blogs. When someone comments on a popular site with their http:// it's like Mark putting another link on his site.
Okay, now that that this is over with, i dare you to type stuff into google like...What is-; How do-; Why does-; The biggest-; the best-; twilight fans- and so on just for the fun of it. Don't even press enter, just let google do its fancy guess work.
