One seminar “expert” claimed that there was no difference between site running Google Ads and site not running Google ads. In other words, Google returned the same results.

While I’m sure that it is true, I still have a suspicious mind, and I’m curious whether that’s true or not. I’m not willing to run a second site to figure it out, though.
