What ever comes it?
I’m by no means an expert on this, Dusty. But as I understand it, a website’s search-engine ranking is influenced by how many links there are to it on other websites. The more links, the the higher the ranking. The higher the ranking, the closer to the top of the list you get on Google search results, for example. As long as the search-engine bots see the links, it may not matter if anyone ever clicks them.
There’s a whole industry out there selling search-engine optimization (SEO) services. As far as I know, most of them are ethical. But I suspect that unscrupulous SEO firms place this sort of spam just to increase their clients’s search-engine rankings. And probably outsource a lot of the actual spamming to third-world countries, to get it done at the lowest cost.
