its funny how most people refer to serp's as spam ..
Google steals thousands of my pages content every day and when my pages show up on top im a "spammer".
Google is the spammer.
When you see terrible results on the top of google its because google is trying to drive hits to adwords... they dont make money when you find what you want in the regular searches.
I have been watching google closely for the last few months , and im almost certain they "degrade" results based on the ctr of the adwords for those keywords..
example.. lets say i sell screwdrivers , and when you search for screwdrivers my site shows up on top of google. the surfer needs to go no further , they have found my site and dont need google anymore.
Now if irrelevent sites were found in the serp the surfer is MUCH more inclined to click on the adwords
SO im certain they gauge the ctr on the adwords and if they are rerally low for that keyword they simply degrade the algorithm slightly
