I agree with cantleave - it is just how the algo works - luck (or maybe good management - do they have a computer geek at Bethel who worked out how the algo works and so suggested JW.org for exactly that reason?) but I am sure the GB will see J's hand in there

That line alone absolutely nauseates me. - ShirleyW
I totally agree. It's like they are saying:
"Isn't it nice Big Brother/Mommy is taking care of us...since we are so helpless and stupid on our own."

addendum...
so apperantly if you type JW. (without hitting enter) it auto completes the search with JWFACTS being the 4th result down...but if you hit enter after typing JW. it is as Sir82 said no appearant "appostate" stuff.
strange....

It's strange they'd rather you google "jw" than "jehovah."

This is such non-sense. Google results are calculated by an algorithm that is subject to influence from no one except someone's own search optimization efforts. Google will put results at top that are sponsored, meaning paid for ads, but that is not the same as doing the WT a favor.

JW.org could sponsor themselves to be first. Can't they? Why is that so out of the realm of possibility?
If I type in JW. I get nothing about ex JW's for several pages. To vague. JW.org is the first site to pop up.
If I type inanything else, including jw.org, I get JWfacts as number 4 on the list. JW.org still number one.
I am sure it is fine if it is number one. I am abslutely posative it is visited by 10's of thousands of people a day, especially if it is being used in the ministry now, and everyone got the ok to use the tech.

When I type "JW" into google, I get " JW Pepper; JWOWW; JW Marriott"
When I type "JW." into google, I get "jw.org; jwfacts.com; jwleaks.org"
Of course, perhaps Google "remembers" sites I have visited already. Although I have no idea about JW Pepper or JWWOW.

When I search 'JW' in Google, with or without period, JW.org is on top and number seven (last on the first page) is JWfacts.com.
