Since Google Bombing (see below) can be used to artificially inflate the search engine rankings for a page, Google responded by looking for unnatural linking patterns. While only Google knows for sure how this is handled, my theories are that it looks for site-wide links, excessive growth in links from a large number of web sites, so-called bad neighborhoods, and excessive percentage of inbound links all having the same anchor text.

Google Bowling means Manipulating the external ranking factors that Google uses to penalize a site against your competitors (or someone you just don't like or want to appear in the SERPs).
There is one thing that protects a website against Google Bowling - a solid back link profile of its own. The more your "real" quality backlinks grow, the less anyone Else's malicious actions can affect it.

In Google Bowling you bowl out your competitor from the SERPs by directing the traffic to your site.Unless Google Catches your bowl you will see better results in SERPs for your keywords and when Google get to know about it,it usually catches that bowl and get you out.

This practice began when Google started penalizing sites that purchase site- wide text link ads to get lots of incoming links in a hurry. Unscrupulous webmasters realized that this could be used against competitor sites by linking to them instead of their own site. Google claim they have measures in place to prevent this practice from unfairly damaging a site's PageRank.

Google bowling actually refers to a black hat SEO method, where a company is often hired to bring a site down in the rankings.  For example, Company B ranks number two for a specific term, so they hire BlackHat SEO Cat to do the dirty work in order to bring Company A, Company B's competitor, down in the rankings.  BlackHat SEO Cat is happy to oblige, so they launch a negative linking campaign.  Creating inbound links to their site from malicious software sites, pоrn sites, hate sites, and negative blogs and forums.  Ultimately associating the site badly and impacting the site's ranking.  Dropping them lower in the search results and bringing Company B to the top. 

This blackhat SEO method is highly unethical and is also less effective today due to changes in the algorithms instituted by Google in order to combat this type of SEO campaign.

Google Bowling is a black hat SEO technique used to knock competitors down or out of search engine results. It is a form of SEO sabotage that is conducted by pointing hundreds of questionable links from low quality sites at a competitor's site so they end up banned or penalized by Google. Generally newer sites are more susceptible to Google Bowling as older sites are better established with a range of existing high quality links.

Google Bowling means Manipulating the external ranking factors that Google uses to penalize a site against your competitors (or someone you just don't like or want to appear in the SERPs).

The Google Sandbox is much related to a new website being placed on probation and kept lower than expected in searches, prior to being given full value for its incoming links and content. The Sandbox acts as defect experimentation for sites, possibly to put off spam sites from rising quickly, getting banned, and repeating the process.
