Been looking for a search engine that isn’t plauged with SEO garbage every time I look for anything. Been using DDG for quite a long time now, and I’m starting to get dissatisfied with results. It seems like more and more results are just companies trying to make their way to the top of the search results instead of anything organic. It’s even worse when I look for any kind of service or product.

Looking for as close to 100% organic results as possible.

    $5/month is very steep, and it only includes 300 searches. There’s no way Google makes that per month off of advertising to me, and I really don’t see how $1/month wouldn’t be more than enough to cover their costs.

      Google has probably managed to reduce cost at scale. I’d expect kagis internal cost per search to go down with time. But they may not pass those saving onto the user.
