  • You are right with that, but there’s actually a reason why companies book adspace on searches for their own product name (e.g. Lenovo booking ad space on searches for “Lenovo”), and imho it’s even worse.

    That way they want to stop competitors (e.g. HP) from booking the adspace, which would lead to HP being the first hit on a search for Lenovo.

    That’s pretty much digital racketeering. “That’s a nice website you have there. It would be a right shame if something would happen to the traffic going there.”
