Google improves their search results by analyzing user behavior.
Users want relevant search results. A search engine cannot provide them without massive amounts of search queries. Locking them in a 90%+ search monopoly.
For competition to even be possible Google must open up it's data.
- worik 6y agoThat is one of the fundemental flaws in Google's aproach, and one of the chief reasons I do not use it. I often hear people say "When you search for XXX the first few results are YYYY" to make a point. What they are telling you about is their bubble.
- reaperducer 6y agoUsers want relevant search results If Google provided relevant search results, I might give it the benefit of the doubt; but it doesn't. For my searches, Google's results are such a dumpster fire of spam and cross-promotion that I've gone back to how I used to find information before search engines existed. And when I break down and use a search engine, it's the Duck. Google doesn't make money from people finding information. It makes money by keeping people on the treadmill of searching for information.
