It makes a ton of sense. If you could have google quality search without the tracking or ads, imaging how many more iPhones Apple would sell, and how much more people would be willing to pay for them.
- jeffbee 6y ago> If you could have google quality search without the tracking This is a hypothetical of the frog-with-wings variety.
- ChuckMcM 6y agoUsing tests that are similar to what Google used internally to measure search quality in the 2006 - 2010 time frame, a side by side comparison Bing and Google have equal search quality and on contested searches like "good mortgage rate" Google's search quality is actually worse.
- jeffbee 6y agoI can't dispute that this is accurate for you, but for me I'm not seeing it. Bing gives me a knowledge box that says "Average Mortgage Rates Today" and lists a table with 30-year fixed, 15-year fixed, 5/1 ARM and an average rate for each. That would be a good result but despite the title the rates are from 2018. Google gives me bankrate.com in the #1 paid and the #1 organic position. This seems like a superior result. In general I think it is hard to judge search quality from a query like this which is incredibly lucrative for search engines. There's an adversarial process between quality, SEO, and advertisers.
