Many webmasters today are deeply focused on SEO, or Search Engine Optimization. They invest countless hours tweaking their websites, adding keyword-rich content, and gathering backlinks, all with the aim of boosting their site's search engine rankings. While it's true that over 90% of web users rely on search engines to find sites, the question remains: should websites be crafted for search engines or for their human audience?
The clear answer is that websites should be designed with human visitors in mind. The true purpose of a website is to attract traffic. A site without traffic, regardless of its features and functionality, is ineffective. Although search engines can drive traffic, sites optimized solely for them often fail to engage real visitors, making any traffic they generate worthless. Visitors who find a site unappealing or difficult to navigate will leave and are unlikely to return, which undermines the site’s success.
A common mistake in purely search engine-focused optimization is keyword stuffing in Meta-Tags?"a practice that can lead to a site being blacklisted. This type of "black hat" technique does nothing to enhance the user experience.
Therefore, when building a website, the focus should be on human visitors. Overly keyword-dense articles degrade quality and can frustrate users. If content feels forced?"like consistently using terms such as "mesothelioma" or "home insurance loan" merely for search rankings?"visitors will likely leave and not come back. Conversely, well-written content that caters to readers will attract return visits and naturally encourage users to share and link to your site, enhancing its popularity and improving search rankings organically.
Instead of dedicating excessive time to building links for SEO, that effort could be better spent enhancing your website's features, making it more appealing and encouraging visitors to stay longer.
In conclusion, while focusing intensively on SEO might temporarily boost search rankings, the traffic gained is often not quality traffic. Building a website with people in mind ensures that traffic will grow organically, and search engine rankings will improve naturally over time. The most successful websites prioritize their human audience, allowing them to climb search engine rankings authentically.
