The people who search for a product, and get get results ranked based on irrelevant blogging.
Using a web search engine is asking for rankings based on web structure, not rankings based on product quality.

You might think it's bad to take advantage of that, but refraining from doing so doesn't likely yield a fair product quality ranking, just some different unfair rating.
