Glossary term: Google Bomb

A Google bomb (or Googlebomb) is an attempt to influence the ranking of a given site in results returned by the Google search engine through the use of external linking. The most famous (or infamous) Google bomb is miserable failure.

Update: In late January 2007, Google took steps to remove Google bombs from its index.
