Victoria’s Secret is engaged in gambling?
July 27th, 2005
I’ve just found an interesting thread at SEO Chat forums.
Popular website — www.victoriassecret.com — that sells sexy clothes — has been noticed to be #5 in Google by ‘online poker’.
Search engine results aren’t constant, so I’m attaching the screenshot (click the image to view the full sized pic):
It’s necessary to say that ‘online poker’ is extremely competitive keyword, and many gambling websites spend thousands per months to get at least in Top 10.
How did Victoria’s Secret manage to obtain this fat position — that’s the question.
Having checking Google cache I haven’t noticed anything wrong — no hidden text, no cloaking etc. I haven’t also noticed any mention of ‘online poker’ at the website itself.
I’m sure that with such sudden appearance in gambling area Victoria’s Secret may find lots of new competitors.
