    Think about it. You type in Webhosting into Google and it brings you all this spam. I'm not going to sign up for hosting from a Google result, are you? No! Most people sign up for hosting based on reviews or referrals. Who cares what Google dictates is #1? Not me.

    (BTW, I need paid webhosting. PM me.)

    I signed up for hosting from a search in google, but then I was a bit more specific than just "Web Hosting".

    Sometimes Google displays relevant links, but after clicking either on a link or on and ad, all what you find is garbage you know, MFA sites with no content at all.

    Not always but does occur.

    You have to be specific on what stuff you want in a particular host, your requirements.
