Try those same search terms in Kagi and you'll see Forbes at the top of the results. I use Kagi and like it a lot but you should be aware that most of their results come from Google.

You can block Forbes in Kagi search, but not in Google.

    • What's the issue with all these websites? Is it simply that you have a distaste for affiliate sites in general?

      It’s worth noting that Lars Lofgren’s own affiliate site (the person that wrote this article), hradvice.com, was impacted by a Google update in August, so there might be some personal bias and motive here.

      But I’m curious—what exactly are the criticisms you have towards platforms like NerdWallet and Bankrate? Would love to better understand.

Interesting! Presumably I've downranked Forbes at some point over the past few years, I get useful results in Kagi.
