My expectation is that most people searching for the name of the bank are doing it because they are trying to find the official bank pages.
If searches like [bankname fraud] etc also mostly got the bank's own pages, that would be a problem, but this sounds like giving people what they're looking for?
- wolpoli 4y agoI just did a Google search on a [big canadian bank with 4-letters fraud] and got all the bank's own pages. The bank created specialized pages for different fraud related scenarios, and they monopolized the first result page.
- jefftk 4y agoHmm, I forgot that "fraud" in this context will often be things like identity theft, and the bank's own materials might be relevant. But yeah, trying that search I agree there's too much of the bank's own results in the response. [big canadian bank with 4-letters criticism] is better, though
