What are the ideal results for “best laptop”?



This is for sure a really hard question to answer, but I think we can agree that a 2017 blog post does not constitute the “idea results” for this query, no?

FWIW I was a beta tester, and (mostly) enjoyed my experience, but having this as a demo of Kagi’s abilities on your splash page does not inspire confidence in the product IMO.


There are two schools of thought on how to answer this query:

Here is #1 result on Google: https://www.techradar.com/news/mobile-computing/laptops/best...

Here is #1 result on Kagi: https://marco.org/2017/11/14/best-laptop-ever

Kagi's result showcases our philosophy of preferring non-commercial content to commercial/SEO/affiliate content. It may not be for everyone. If the users want that they can find the same link as Google's #1 in a section called listicles.

We show this example on purpose so that we manage expectations on what you will get Kagi from the very first interaction.
