Another nice thing about Kagi is that you can eliminate domains from your search results. Obvious content farms are pretty easy to spot and remove.

My favorite feature is being able to boost a certain domain up in the the results (or even pin it if you really would like). I often search for different Pokemon and prefer the information that a site like Serebii.net gives me over something like Bulbapedia.

Is there any reason why? I'm not heavy into the game anymore but usually when I'm searching Pokemon Bulbapedia has the information I want.

I think it's just because I prefer the organization of the information, giving you things like the type chart up front and center.

It's also the site I used more as a kid so there's probably some loyalty bias.

Yes, eliminating and boosting favoured sites are both excellent feathers on Kagi

That should be a good signal for ranking algorithms as well with the subscription price disincentivizing bots.
