I'm working on a class project that involved making a website. I want to know if there is a way to make your page come up as the first listing when you perform a search on a search engine. Lets say the class website is called Internet Programming and you do a search for Internet Programming on google or yahoo how can I make it become one of the first pages listed?

Thanks

Type some of these into Google and hit "I'm Feeling Lucky" (not sure how many still work):

Weapons of Mass Destruction
Miserable failure
Waffles
French Military Victories

These are the results of something called "Google bombing". Basically, a bunch of people need to link to the page in question on their own websites, using a predetermines keyword, and then Google's spider bots pick up on the trend and move it up in the rankings. Google doesn't exactly like it, but I haven't heard of them taking any huge countermeasures against it... basically they regard the Internet as too massive a place for it to matter for long.

Google really should just have a "move my website to the top of a search engine query" submission page. Am certain it would not be abused. No, of course it wouldn't.

PR= PageRank. You're offering to put up a link for $5, if your PR is 2 it's not worth much, if it's 7 it is. If you don't know what your PR is.......
