JC Penny gamed Google to be the #1 search listing for obscure things like "table clothes," "dresses" and even "Samsonite carry-on luggage." Google took a hard stance and updated is algorithm and lowered JCPs results. But how did JCP do it? Find out in the NYT.
As you may have heard, Bing was caught stealing Google's search terms and results. (The legality of this is still pending). Nevertheless, apparently Bing hasn't read the NYT article, because if you search for "Samsonite carry-on luggage" on Bing.com, JCPenny still comes up first! Hahaha, karma.
