On commercial queries, four ads can push organic entirely below the fold

Summary

Claim: On commercial-intent searches, a four-pack of top ads can push organic results entirely below the fold; older analysis found a large share of users on small screens see NO organic result at all without scrolling when four ads show.

Confidence: Industry-consensus.

Why this matters for Candid: Commercial-intent queries are structurally harder for organic SMB strategies. If the widget detects commercial-intent dominance, factor up the difficulty tier even if competitor-specific signals are weak.
