    Quotes make it only return results that contain exactly what’s in the quotes. All you need to do is put a string in your website that is unique to all indexed pages. Since there’s no length limit (well, google searches have a max length, but it’s pretty long), I expect that the vast majority of web pages will have some phrase you can use like this.

    In theory, you could just search for the entire contents of a page in quotes and it’ll be the only thing that pops up unless another page is identical or contains an identical copy of the first page within it.


  • The best argument I’ve hard in favor of dealers is that they introduce competition in sales of a single brand of vehicle. Instead of Ford having a monopoly on Ford vehicles and selling for MSRP only, you can shop around Ford dealerships that all sell the same product but have to compete with eachother on price or whatever.

    That system starts to break down when, like in recent years, dealerships collectively decide to stop selling vehicles for MSRP or below and all tack on thousands of bullshit dealership markup fees. Also dealerships are exclusively run by scum of the Earth which massively taints the entire car shopping experience.
