> There is an SEO-proof way to determine what the ranking of a site should be
This comment deserves a "my sweet summer child". Everything can be gamed; if you don't see how, then you really shouldn't be suggesting ideas.
How do you define an advertisement? How do you prevent downvote spam (if captchas worked, there wouldn't be bots/astroturfers on the Internet)? How will you fund your search engine?
But many ads and crap today are actually not traditional ads. Don’t they count? If not, then gpt generated text ads or whatever will become more prevalent
