Sure I understand your point, and my statement stands.

Additionally, why do you think this will do you any good?  Search 
engines are very good at finding sites who try to scam them for better 
ratings.

Build a good site and it will get ranked high.  Build a crappy site and 
it will be ranked low.  Try to scam the search engines and it won't be 
ranked at all.
