The article says:

  How did we contribute to so dubious an achievement? It was easy! On
  the first installment of our Ask Hester HugeDisk column we innocently
  ran a link from the words "dumb motherfucker" to George W. Bush's
  on-line campaign store. The search engines noticed that we, along with
  a few other websites, endorsed George as a "dumb motherfucker" and
  adjusted George's search engine rankings accordingly.

This is actually interesting. A lot of people use "here" and "click
here" to meaninglessly point to some other place. So I wanted to see
with Google the pages that are referred to like that (supposing that
they are going to appear first).

"click here"[1] and "here"[2] queries give Adobe Acrobat Reader first.
Neither "click" nor "here" appear in the page. I guess that a lot of
people <a href="...">click here</a> to download Acrobat Reader.
