Honestly I don't even believe the websites anymore. Today I was searching for good sports bar in my city and couldn't find any reddit threads. I decided to give Google search a try but I didn't want to believe the information is true. It felt like the local bars are paying the websites to boost their rankings.

You're deluded if you don't think SEO doesn't exist in a worse way for LLMs, there's tons of papers about that, you can just mine for phrases that increases likelihoods just by observing outputs.
