    Creating for number of sites linking to one site with the same anchor text in order to raise its ranking for that phrase.

    All I know is, Googlebombing is a blackhat technique use towards your competitor. Wherein, you'll buy lots of bad links linking to other websites.

    As far as I remember, it is easier few years ago when Google algorithm is not as strict as now, back then, anyone could use spam around for a link or site using certain anchor text and it could easily rank on top. Google already controlled this tactics few years ago..

    Google bomb is to make a lot of backlinks with a specific keyword to point to a web page. It's done for either business, political, or comedic purposes (or a combination of the latter two).

    the terms Google bomb and Googlewashing refer to practices intended to influence the ranking of particular pages in results returned by the Google search engine, often with humorous or political intentions. (Note: payment required, weblink goes to abstract.

    Google Bombing or Google wash is an attempt to influence the ranking of a given site in results returned by the Google search engine. Due to the way that Google's PageRank algorithm works, a website will be ranked higher if the sites that link to that page all use consistent anchor text. Googlebomb is used both as a verb and a noun.

    Google bombing is like a collective effort to link to a site with key phrase and artificially rank a website high on google search results. It is better not to try tp utilize this method as it is a black hat technique.

    Googlebombing acts as a double edged weapon when you attempt to influence the mighty Google with too many back links, you end up being influenced by the google (most of the time, badly!)

    The terms Google bomb and Googlewashing refer to practices intended to influence the ranking of particular pages in results returned by the Google search engine, in order to increase the likelihood of people finding and clicking on selections in which the individual or other entity engaging in this practice is interested. It is done for either business, political, or comedic purposes (or a combination of the latter two).[1] Google's search-rank algorithm ranks pages higher for a particular search phrase if enough other pages linked to it using similar anchor text (linking text such as "miserable failure"). However, by January 2007 Google had made changes to search results to counter popular Google bombs, such as "miserable failure", which now lists pages about the Google bomb itself. Other Google bombs, however, continue to remain operative, as exampled by the SERP for the search phrase "french military victories".[2] Google bomb is used both as a verb and a noun. The phrase "Google bombing" was introduced to the New Oxford American Dictionary in May 2005.[3] Google bombing is closely related to spamdexing, the practice of deliberately modifying HTML pages to increase the chance of their website being placed close to the beginning of search engine results, or to influence the category to which the page is assigned in a misleading or dishonest manner.

    this is blackhat technique .. The practice of using anchor text to make a page show up in the SERPs under keywords that are out of context for that page. For instance, if you want your arch enemy's page to be #1 on Google for "absolute moron", you'd get as many people as possible to link to his page using "abosute moron" as anchor text. Google bombing can of course also be used to create a positive effect. In theory you could get your own site listed at the top for very targeted keywords using the same technique. Both these uses are of course aimed at manipulating search results and as such are spam
