I cant believe this didnt get more traction.
I have been noticing a very painful decline in Google results with more content not labeled as ads but clearly placed due to a metric other than usefulness. I routinely find myself multiple pages deep in searches, which never used to happen.
Mark my words, this is purposeful on googles end, either directly through some kind of ordering affiliate or indirectly through some kind of seo partnership
- lapnitnelav 8y agoFWIW, Google is about to put more ads[0] in the Image search results https://www.blog.google/products/ads/shopping-google-images/ https://www.blog.google/products/ads/shopping-google-images/

- mrhappyunhappy 8y agoIt’s affiliate marketing content locking. I did this in the past but not at this scale. My guess is millions are being made by a network or a very smart and ambitious Russian.
