Obviously given a preference everyone wants to be #1 on the first page. However, if given the choice between being the last listing on the first page, or the first listing on the second page, which would you choose?
i would say top of second page 1 - people tend to skip bottom of page 2 - whilst page is loading you site is viable straight away so adding a better % of a click 3 - you can still say your top in google
Probably the last on the first page, though being at the top of a page certainly has some advantages.
