No website is "loved" by google, people love websites and talk about them and share them on forums and such. Those links help build back-links to the sites which increases its ranking. Has nothing to do with google love, especially when google is evil .

I know, and of course a popular site is going to give it a good ranking in google, which is where the google love term comes from. I didn't literally mean a website has an advantage because google has a thing for it.
