As much as you are normally an asshole (like myself), this is true.
Google has done nothing more than attempt to eliminate the people cheating the end user. Is that a bad thing? I remember the days of sifting through page upon page upon page of garbage before I found what I wanted. Remember people using bottom of the page keywords that were the same color as the background of their html? Gone. Thank fucking God.
Jackasses that back-link between their own sites, hosted, rehosted, etc. stuffing pages with relevant keywords mixed in with gobbledeegook are going the way of the dodo.
I run an honest enterprise. I own top notch keywords that outweigh supergiants such as RetailMeNot.com and other discount websites. I know that site over-all gets more traffic than I will ever see... daily. Not on my keywords though, bruh. Google knows what's up.
Remember, there is a reason why the tubes own the FREE PORN serps...
