Googling "NGA" gets me the following, in order:

1. A Chinese gaming forum

2. The spy agency's official Twitter mouth piece

3. The spy agency's own website

4. National Governors Association

5. Spy agency's Wikipedia article

That's some fine reverse-SEO work right there.




Nah, its just that all those other groups have an SEO budget. If NGA does it is probably via a big prime contractor like LM and completely ineffectual.


If you didn't know the agency exists, how would anyone know what to Google for?


Maybe by noticing their official Twitter account.

I mean, if you were trying to hide, that seems like an obvious thing to cut out.


"satellite spying agency" returns direct links to the NRO's and NGA's Wikipedia pages.
