    What are “SEO spam tactics”? I would google, but am afraid of that now.

      Whenever you try to get an answer to something like “What movie was the Be Like Water line from” and you can NOT find anything other than a bunch of articles with tons of paragraphs wasting your time - that’s the SEO spam tactics. Those articles chose words that made themselves easier to be indexed by Google, but don’t actually want to answer that question.

      And yes. I literally looked this up this week.

      I still don’t fucking know if it came from Enter the Dragon or some other short series. I just gave up. Google has enshitified news articles on the internet and has to seriously consider retraining their algorithm to negatively impact shit like that.

      Basically all the crap on a recipe page before the actual recipe… Except there is no recipe.

      One where they optimise their article and site according to how google algorithm works, and then multiply by 10. Or they funnel your search term to their own search function.
