I’ve noticed that distributors (Jameco, Mouser, etc) have a surprising number of introductory education articles. I’ve seen this pattern on websites for car dealerships and HVAC installers, so I assumed it was for SEO purposes. But electronic parts distribution seems like a much more niche audience; why bother with SEO?

If I recall correctly these pages are useful for teachers and students, and Jameco has relatively high-touch education sales (for example, their kitting program: https://www.jameco.com/Jameco/workshop/education-center/educ...).

I want to say that I remember seeing this page in high school in the late 00s, although the Internet Archive only seems to go back to 2012 for this exact URL.
