organic sets
 

Late night theory, perhaps trite:

Creating "new" Google sets improves your keyword search ranking for those items. Earliness of introduction into Google of an idea set produces permanent high placement- your predated entry grows coattails as others strengthen and round out the set.

wtf?

I'm trying to read into Google's algorithms.

Let's say for example (sorry if it's not a really good one) that no one had ever put all the commonly used english language latin words together in one place- the words distanced not very far apart.

Let's say that's all I had on a page- most of those terms, and that this was an early entry into Google...

and other people did the same thing, to a lesser or greater extent... thus causing a "set" to congeal.

But mine, mine was first, and kept greater precedence in search results despite the greater completeness of later entries. Coat tails.
