Absolutely spot on. Always write for your readers first and then for the search engines. Its common sense. How can your website or blog be valuable to readers (humans) when its written with machines in mind.

Hi Slmon,
You are very correct. Even search engines will not be happy, if you write a post with machines in mind.
Thanks again for the tip.
Yes, both Google and Users love his posts equally. But its sad that he is no longer updating his blog. Now all you see is guest posts.

Hi Sibin. You are very correct. Long term bloggers always give more importance to quality posts than purely SEO tricks.
Thanks for the comment.
It is quite clear that contents are heart of your website / blogsite. If can’t take care of your heart properly, how could you survive in this world.
I don’t know why people don’t understand this simple formula to make their website for visitors not google and other search engine bots and spiders.
