But it was so easy because they all had a manual page submit system so once you figured it out you could just re-submit a new page right away after you lost your position.
I remember I searched for a keyword like sheep, took the #1 result, bulk replaced sheep with sex, submitted the page, and it was #1 for sex in no time lol.

LOL. I loved when Altavista would allow you to submit up to 5 urls per day. I would submit 5 and within 48 hours would often have 3-4 of them in the Top 10 for their keywords. Of course, two days later they had dropped to #589, but I would just submit five new sites every day so I kept it going.
I also loved back when you get listed in the DMOZ project and it would often end up getting you good positions on the AOL search engine.
I also remember when link sites and TGPs would not list you if you gave away too much free stuff.
Oh the glory days. LOL
