Kagi users are in such a minority that I don't see how it is worth it for anyone to optimize for Kagi search results.
Yet. If you want to be better than Google, you need to avoid Google's mistakes.
I've been a paying Kagi user for a few months now. The only thing that made me miss Google results was immediate answers: the answers that are extracted from a prominent web page and shown directly, so you don't have to click the link. Actually, Kagi has some of that for certain queries, but it's not as extensive as Google's. So, contrary to the most of the comments here, I support their AI endeavors for the sake of…
I’ve been really liking the quick answers[1] that Kagi added. The doc gives some info as to what triggers it so it seems less random. [1] https://help.kagi.com/kagi/ai/quick-answer.html

Kagi already dodges the SEO bullet.

I can't help but wonder if my money was being spent on pet projects like this instead of improving/maintaining the search.
Kagi founder here. This is very early (alpha) concept built by a single Kagi Labs developer in a few weeks. The proper infrastruture and product is not built yet. We are launching a prototype to get feedback and gauge demand. Why does this exist? It would be an efficient way for us to build and expand our own index. Assuming users of this would be Kagi users, we would expand our index by tens of thousands of high qua…
I cancelled my Kagi subscription because it's a little too expensive for me in the unlimited search tier. And I search too much for the limited search tier. I can't help but wonder if my money was being spent on pet projects like this instead of improving/maintaining the search.

No matter what weights and checks are put in place, some observers will notice how their rankings change and make appropriate modifications.
This isn't solved by Kagi's product, either. I'm a happy user and use it as my daily driver. That doesn't mean that, if it increases in popularity, the results will remain unskewed.

How will you prevent someone from connecting Sidekick to a website that appears at first to be a small website but eventually fills with LLM-generated SEO keywords and ads? You might be able to manually review sites when they first sign up for Sidekick, but once the channel is open for them to inject content into Kagi's index, what's to stop them from abusing their privileged position?

All companies allocate some fraction of their resources towards innovation outside of what is currently their core feature-set.
