my question is how do I get a image next to my site in google search?
I think its a little unfair if some sites are aloud things then others are not.

on a more mature note this is a 80k a day search term how are they obtaining such things next to their site in the Google listing.

If you look at the URL of the pic its a url for a google thumbnail, maybe he has some videos uploaded to his site via google video and google is pulling it from there..

why idk.
Because as mentioned in another thread he uses a bot to produce thousands of plays per day. That gets it to #1 fast.

So you think the algo is that easy to manipulate? Wouldn't that be too good to be true? What about all the other videos with millions of views that don't show up in the SERPS for any high volume keywords (even though the title of the video is well optimized) ...Maybe once you go over a certain number, like 5 million views, you're a lock to appear in the SERPS.
But Google also puts vids in the SERPS with only a few hundred views (usually the title tags are matching the keyword). But you can also find youtube vids with good title tags and millions of views that Google just chooses to ignore.

So you think it's unfair that Soulja Boy's official website is ranking #1 for 'soulja boy'?
Right.
His index page basically consists of youtube videos so I'm not surprised. Do other video site search results such as megavideo show the thumbs too or is it just Youtube and Google Video?

lol, that's what i was thinking... his official site is probably the most relevant site for the term, "soulja boy."

It says its an official site, so you wonder if they get a bypass and are automatically ranked #1 and allowed "certain" privileges.

Taken from your first post: "I think its a little unfair if some sites are aloud things then others are not." I responded to that...
I also said "His index page basically consists of youtube videos so I'm not surprised." - implying that you should give it a try if you're looking to get a thumb next to your results...

Weird.. I don't think people will ever be able to customize those though. Google probably picks them from the site. It could be an artists only thing (I assume he/she is an artist)
