That's a good point! A lot of online content is created for search clicks only, not quality. For example, I often search Google in lithuanian language and I keep getting whole lot of auto-translated blog/article farms as a result. Those translations almost always are shoddy, but these pages keep popping up in the first Google results because a) there is not a lot of native (language) content to push out these clickbaits and b) those clickbaits are on domains that are also, well, in the first results of other lesser languages... I think these auto-translated pages started to pop up two or three years ago...
