Google is the EU Remain campaign's secret weapon

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
Google has demoted the site EU Referendum to “below the fold” in searches for the term “EU referendum”, where it isn’t visible to most web surfers unless they scroll down.
The political site, which was founded by author and researcher Richard A.E. North in 2004, was the top search result for the topical expression across all the major search engines for a decade.
At Google, the site has been demoted to 10th (or 13th, depending on how you count it) for the search term, with links to the BBC and the pro-EU Guardian newspaper ranking higher. North’s site still ranks No.1 for the same term over at Yahoo! and Bing.
Google dominates the market with over 90 per cent share of search engine traffic in Europe …. http://www.theregister.co.uk
