    Hello DP-ers...:),

    The thread title above actually triggered by "a bit Disappointment" of the Search Results on Google.

    Often, We find a search result (especially on Google) that its Relevance of a Website was low/not good but appeared on the top of SERP. One of the causes of a Website appears at the top of SERP, is that the Website Owner really smart for Good SEO tricks. Ironically, it is something that is legitimate or legal for the Website Owner.

    Finally, We brought into a situation that Very Dilemma or Confusing, where We must make a choice of :

    Search Engine Minded ----> We always using the SEO Tricks, which had unwittingly violated the Webmaster Guidelines,

    OR,

    User Minded ----> We just focus to create more and more Original Content with a lot of article that is very comfortable to read by Users but it is difficult to appear on the Top of SERP.

    Please Share, What is Your Choice?

    Note:
    In fact, I got confused TO USE Meta Keywords, Image Alt Attribute e.t.c or NOT USE.

    I try to write for my users while satisfying the spiders at the same time, but always erring on the side of the human user.

    It doesnt have to be a sacrifice of one over another. If you dont overdo onpage SEO you can always present a nice looking page to the user.
