Oh, their recent way to make money with hotel/flight bookings, restaurant reviews, etc is even scarier.
They essentially use their search engine market domination to find out who else makes money off the biggest searches, and then clone those products and show the clones on top of the originals. Good luck competing with that...
- shdh 7y agoWouldn’t doing the same thing be feasible to anyone with access to Google Trends?
- john_moscow 7y agoYou mean, placing their own offering directly on the Google Results page before any kind of paid or organic links in a highly competitive area?
- reroute1 7y agoDo you know examples of these services? What can you search for that does this?
- infoseek12 7y agoYa, it seems like a carefully orchestrated plan to envelop a big chunk of the internet. Google Featured Snippets began doing it with static content, now features like Google Flights are doing it with a lot of dynamic content. I especially dislike how they're pursuing this strategy in regards to Accelerated Mobile Pages. Google has done a lot of incredible things, and I think fears about killing the golden goose merit serious consideration, but all this does make one appreciate the value of antitrust laws. https://theoutline.com/post/1399/how-google-ate-celebritynetworth-com?zd=1&zi=luurors7 https://theoutline.com/post/1399/how-google-ate-celebritynet...
