Unfortunately it’s never-ending cat and mouse battle. The whole point of SEO is to game the search engines systems, so the spammers will now be adjusting their tactics.

I don’t think it’s just SEO that’s the problem with Google search either. They seem to put too much weight on e-commerce over information.

Kagi and sealngx figured it out just fine. Turns out if your goal isn’t to show advertisements then it’s not that hard of a problem.

Those are just insignificant compared to Google so noone is even trying to game them.

That's actually one of the reasons why I use kagi but saying that they figured it out is just wrong

Or SEO is focused on gaming google.
