Couldn't agree more about the final sentence. Searching for almost anything (how to guides and recipes are the most obvious examples) returns a SERP of utter rubbish, all clearly designed to farm SEO and clicks. This seems to be what Google wants and desires, because it keeps getting worse.
- smoldesu 5y agoAlternatively, maybe they do give a shit, but it's easier for 10,000+ companies to hack your SEO than it is for 10,000+ employees to come up with a way to mitigate it.
- coldpie 5y agoThis is why using ad blockers is more ethical than not. The sooner we destroy ad-based business models, the sooner we can find a model that works.
- kjs3 5y agoAgreed. These days it seems in all of my Google searches, after the first third of a page of results, everything is dominated by garbage pages on (presumably) hacked sites filled with SEO bait. They're so obviously gaming the system, I can only presume Google is intentionally looking the other way.
