Scientology is a Dangerous Cult
A Google bomb (also referred to as a ‘link bomb’) is Internet slang for a certain kind of attempt to influence the ranking of a given page in results returned by the Google search engine, often with humorous or political intentions. Because of the way that Google’s algorithm works, a page will be ranked higher if the sites that link to that page use consistent anchor text. A Google bomb is created if a large number of sites link to the page in this manner.
Google made changes to its algorithm to prevent such attempts at manipulating a keyword. However, looks like people against Scientology have overcome Google’s attempts to prevent Googlebombing.
If you type in “dangerous cult” into Google, the first result is the Church of Scientology’s official website.

more people need to know of the insidious nature of scientology and its cult-like behavior.
interesting the way this google bomb was dropped to avoid the spam detection filters google has in place. But then does it suggest a weakness in google’s algoritm, or is it this a linking perfectly ligitimate minpulation of SERPs. People are creating links, it wasn’t automated. You cant stop (within reason) what people link to online now can you. read more on The Shelf
