Should this web site be banned from google?

[adlep]

Google keyword:
"michigan computer repair"
take a look at the source code of the page at the top...
:-(
I do not want to do it with my web site, but I guess I have no choice:
spamming really works
Edit: Page Ranking my as*
I am really suprised that Google has felt into that scheme..

There are litteraly hundreds of ways to do it, I don't see how this is any worse. One of my favs is hiding all of the keyword whore stuff in a noscript tag.

The technique was first discussed on April 6, 2001 in an article by Adam Mathes [1]. In that article, he coined the term "Google bombing" and explained how he discovered that Google used the technique to calculate page rankings. He found that a search for "internet rockstar" returned the website of a Ben Brown as the first result, even though "internet rockstar" did not appear anywhere on Brown's webpage. He reasoned that Google's algorithm returned it as the first result because many fan sites that linked to Brown's website used that phrase on their own pages.

Mathes began testing his theory by setting out to make the website of his friend Andy Pressman the number one result for a query of "talentless hack". He gave instructions for creating websites and links to Pressman's website with the text of the link reading "talentless hack". Sure enough, as other webloggers joined in his Googlebombing campaign, Pressman's website became the number one result in a Google search for "talentless hack". (Ironically, by 2004, Mathes's own site was the number one Google result of this search term. As of 18 October 2005, it remains first.)

neat
