Objective by whose standards? And who watches the watchmen?

Advertisers make their money figuring out how to game the system.

There's an entire industry of SEO ("Search Engine Optimization")

specialists whose sole purpose is to work out the optimal way to

increase search visibility. There are legitimate methods (better

structured pages and good use of keywords) and not so much (setting up

farms of fake blogs - splogs - whose links back into a target site

give it false credibility and page rank.)
