A thousand fucking theories about google are posted on the net every single day.. and 99.9% of them are completely unfounded, supported by self-serving bullshit, and mostly are posted to stroke the ego of the poster.

As I and others have said before, unless these people work for Google and have knowledge of their algorithms.. they are nothing more than unsupported theories..


Let take these zealots for example..

completely baseless google ranking theory

They have 'proved' nothing in my opinion... except that if you are an idiot and buy a domain name that contains certain keywords, and then you never use those keywords in a page on that domain or use those keywords in any link to that domain, THEN.. Google wont rank it for those keywords...

.. and even then.. in their example they do not say, when the domain was purchased, when it was hosted, when it was spidered and how many times it was spidered and where it was linked from etc etc. etc. etc.

So how can any person make an informed descision or form an opinion with the dearth of information provided.


What if.......? Google does not give weight to the domain name keywords .....

... until the keywords are used in a page
... until the keywords are used in text linked to the domain
... until a certain number of pages exist on a domain
... until you add a 'googlepray' meta tag
... until you sacrifice a virgin on your keyboard
etc... etc... etc... etc...

What if... ? When the things listed above occur........

.... Google gives massive weight to the run-together keywords in the domain
.... Google gives some weight to the run-together keywords in the domain
.... Puts every page at the top of every result for those keywords


.. it would make this statement

In other words, Google doesn't give you a boost for "free" or "porn" in "freeporn.com." People who buy domains like "amateurchickswholikesanal.com" for added ranking bonus are wasting their money.
completely false, misleading and/or unfounded...


Add to that ... the fact that.... any so called "proven" theory about Google.... is only valid for the 5 minutes it takes to write the text that purports that theory... because Google may change what they do every single day.. and none of these theorists will know when, why, or by how much it will change.
