yes, at the beginning Google got a huge market share because they were able to return the better result and don't return spammy and unrelated results.
but they are not doing that anymore, it is really hard to find a not spammy (what you described) result on Google these days.
and other search engines are only copying the Google algorithm we need to get back to judging a web page by its content, AI should be able to help now or soon.

You actually have to offer a good product to grow market share, then slowly run it, then users switch to a new product which originally starts good, and the cycle repeats. Nobody would start using Google Search in its current format.
