My go-to test search term is: "grass-fed beef restaurant in sf"

You do much better than Google (Google will always include "Top 10 Best Grass Fed Organic Steak in San Francisco, CA" from Yelp and then link to places that don't have Grass-fed beef options.)

However, currently, your first ranking option is Pinterest spam FYI: https://www.mojeek.com/search?q=grass+fed+beef+restaurant+in...https://www.mojeek.com/search?q=grass+fed+beef+restaurant+in...

Your second option is the correct kind of result (a blog from a local that actually answers the question): https://www.grassfedgirl.com/paleo-friendly-restaurants-in-s...

Where most of the results on Google are not correct. They are mostly articles about Steaks (and a few actual restaurants that serve grass-fed beef, so that is good). Actually, FYI your results don't include these restaurants. eg. It would be nice if this Google result showed up in your results:

"SF / SOMA - Belcampo We source grass-fed and finished, pasture-raised meats directly from our own climate positive CA farms and seasonal vegetables from local farms."

Thanks. useful feedback.

As you point out #1 organic link on G is Yelp. They currently block all but G, Bing and Yahoo! - we'll get in touch with them again. https://www.yelp.com/robots.txt

Organic link #3 on G is Belcampo; we have some of that indexed so we'll take a look: https://www.mojeek.com/search?q=food+site%3Abelcampo.com

>we'll get in touch with them again.

Feel free not to. Follow the link, it isn't a quality result.

Fair point. Some other big sites we are blocked from - we don't sweat. It keeps down the noise-to-signal ratio!
