The GooglePray META Tag

Sep 21, 2006 - 7:41 am 0 — by

A WebmasterWorld thread asks the members what is this "GooglePray" META tag he is finding on some Web page's source code? The bottom-line is that this META tag is an inside joke between some search spammers.

Spamhuntress has dug into this, after receiving a ton of guest book spam from the user.

The tag looks like:

<meta name="GooglePray" content="Google, please rate me high by keyword UmaxSearch">

Spam Chongqing takes a deeper look into the code used on this guys site. One blogger has boycotted UMAX scanners because of this spammer.

This is an old joke and there is an old forum thread at EV1 Servers Forums and a new forum thread at WebmasterWorld.
