The aggressive SEO tactics, more than anything, are what drives me crazy.


I blame google more than anything. Unfortunately, stuffing the content to hit minimum word counts is what ranks in google, and google obviously has a monopoly on search. Without this annoying blah blah, these websites would never rank and it wouldn’t be worth the authors time to make a recipe website. Maybe google should make a blog post on a “recipes” algo update that punishes filler content (of course they will never do that, they have all the arrogance befitting a monopoly provider). Readers, SEOs, cooks and even google themselves would benefit /rant over

I mainly use BBC Good Food. Being taxpayer funded and having unlimited google juice means they don’t need to play this game.


BBC Good Food is actually a commercial company rather than being publicly funded. It comes from the commercial arm of the BBC (BBC Worldwide).

BBC Food was the publicly funded website, but I think that was shut down a few years ago.


You mean this website has been shutdown? https://www.bbc.co.uk/food


I upvoted, but I really wanted to down vote you.
