Google on “crappy wine”

Well, this ties two recent posts nicely together: My spat with Hugh MacLeud about his wine pimping and Google admiting their search engine is manipulatable to googlebombing.

You see, it would appear that 7 of the top 8 Google results for “crappy wine” now point to blog posts and websites that mention [name of Hugh's pimped wine*] via discussions about Hugh and myself’s little disagreement.

* = I’m not going to mention the actual brand as this is all just further marketing, isn’t it?
