Scandal video hosts were buried as deep as 30 pages in search results across Facebook, Yahoo!, and Google. In addition to the free media earned via PR, the ingenius use of Facebook names as a medium generated free impressions worth more than $1,200,000. Helping thousands of scandal victims move one step closer to finally burying the past.
We knew this began with stopping their videos from being easily dug up. So we created the Gabriela ‘Bury the Past’ project. An integrated campaign that got thousands to add to their last name on Facebook the one word common to every scandal video search—“Scandal”. In tandem with further Search Engine Optimization, this would bury scandal video sites deep in search results, making them that much harder to find for sex scandal video searches.
The Philippines is number one in the world in sex scandal video searches, with 300,000 a month on Google, Yahoo!, and now, alarmingly, Facebook. These lead to the million-plus local sex scandal videos online, most featuring girls now living in shame due to the predominantly Catholic society. Gabriela, one of the world’s foremost advocates of women’s rights, wanted to help these victims start anew.
