Google had over 90% of searches online. But then marketers believe Google decided to look at short-term goals instead… and mess up its search results to drive up revenue.
We used to have Google searches that answered queries. Not be riddled with forums like Reddit and Quora – and only big publishers like Forbes and Healthline.
Sure, there were problems and spam – but it wasn’t as terrible as before. We had genuine review blogs and sites – like RetroDodo.com, HardBacon or HouseFresh – that offered something useful for readers.
Now, Users say that Google is Milking Profits from Them...
And that needs to stop… now.
The web search results you see riddled with ads? The poor quality search results where you don’t get what you’re looking for? Many, like us, believe that’s because Google doesn’t want to show you the good stuff… and make you click on the products it recommends – by those who paid for those ad slots.
As a marketer, do you see diminishing Google ad conversions? That’s again because how this monopoly is purposefully making more advertisers spend money – and ‘milking’ it out. But we can do something together…
Are you having trouble finding relevant results on Google search? Or, finding low conversions on Google Ads? You aren't alone.
This is our movement to end Google's monopoly, a company that has forgotten about its tagline of "Do no evil".
it's time we raised our voice
It's time we switched to better search results
Our initiative is to help normal Google searchers – like you – use other sources for better search results. Yes, there are other options.
And it’s to help marketers get to know other streams of revenue – and move away from Google.
Search results are intentionally poor
Google has been purposefully listing poor quality search results riddled with ads in the name of “Helpful content”.
Google Ripped Everyone Off
Google trained on all data of marketers and blogs. Then, killed off all blogs and affiliate sites. Unless you’re a big behemoth. And they didn’t even acknowledge the change.
Search results are riddled with ads
Google’s search results are riddled with more and more ads – but Google has penalized normal businesses from trying to monetize their sites.
you dont get what you're looking for straightaway
That’s not because content doesn’t exist. It’s because Google is not showing it to you – purposefully. So that you end up going to one of the sponsored links.
Google is a Monopoly
Microsoft launched the CoPilot but blended it in with traditional search. Not Google. They thought of this as an opportunity to milk businesses more – and stopped showing proper search results, instead riddling the page with ads.
Google's Gemini is brazenly copying content
We have seen reports of entire recipes being copied and reproduced on Google’s generative A.I. That’s copyright theft, and they are doing it because they know they are a monopoly.
More Search Engines exist - and you can even get rewarded!
For privacy, we recommend search engines like DuckDuckGo and Ecosia. For users who want to get ‘rewarded’, we recommend Bing.com
Google is Losing its Market Share already!
People don’t like what Google is doing – and it has seen the biggest drop in its market share in one month. We are winning – but this is just the beginning!

The world shouldn’t have just one search engine
We need more... and we have a few options. Let's say No to...
No to Poor Search Results
Now, we have Google riddling search results purposefully with poor quality results to increase its profits.
No to a Web Only of Big Publishers
Marketers cannot rank a blog informative site or affiliate blog unless they have a product or service they are selling.
No to Google's Monopoly
Google has essentially vetoed small publishers out. And there is a reason Google is letting only 'businesses' rank - because they will have to spend more on Google's ecosystem.
Here is how I think Google is Changing the Web - Purposefully for its Benefit.
- When informative sites cannot rank online, they need to change their business model, like having an eCommerce shop
- When they change their business model, they will have to advertise.
- Guess what? Most marketers and businesses advertise on Google and Facebook.
- Increased number of ads in searches help Google make more profits, and at lower conversions for businesses.

Wait, what's Google Doing again?
We will tell you what – and you can tell us if you agree with it.
Here are a few unethical things they are doing:
1. Google is willfully removing relevant search results and riddling them with ads – so that you act to buy from what options you have, and keep going back to Google.
2. Google has killed off small businesses and is only ranking high value publishers and businesses. Businesses who will advertise with them in all probability to survive.
3. Google has been intent-fully making the search ads more competitive for lower conversions for marketers.
4. Google is spying on user data and behavior and acting as a monopoly – as alleged at the U.S. Supreme Court.
5. We believe Google has been willfully and intentionally lying to everyone. And they have been caught lying many times before. Back when Matt Cutts was the head and he told websites backlinks weren’t important, or that clicks weren’t important back in the 2000’s. The DoJ documents show they are some of the main drivers of a website’s visibility.
Now, they are lying saying websites aren’t visible online because of “HCU” – whereas the truth is they want websites to only exist if they are having a business – in which case, they are likely to advertise on Google more and drive up their revenue.
Google has made its ecosystem far reaching, intruding all aspects of our lives from email to search to phones and more.
To get started, we recommend moving to a different search engine and using it as a default browser. Then, stop using GMail. We have outlined the things you can do here.
We realized over time what Google was doing to its users, and how, in the name of profits, it was stopping users from seeing relevant search results. If you don’t believe us, try searching for what you did on Google, on search engines like Bing.com or DuckDuckGo. We explain more of it here.
Yes, Google seems to have lost the plot when they decided to look at short term profits in the name of rise of Generative A.I. It decided to kill all informational and affiliate blogs that do not have a product or service they are ‘selling’. All to give poor search results for regular users – who will be forced to click on ads instead. And it is we who need to raise a voice against it.
It's time to make the switch. set a different default search engine for your devices...
And you can do it in under 2 minutes. We will tell you how.
