A common question from our SEO clients is about telling them about our most successful SEO initiatives. Without praising ourselves, there are a few sites we like to talk about – travel.ebookers.com and childfriendly.co.uk. There are a lot of things which come together in a great way for these websites. At the same time, we like to remind our clients focusing on SEO tips alone for ranking a website is not most wise.

The search engine is constantly trying to deliver a better user experience for its users – this means the most relevant results, with informative page snippets, appearing in the shortest possible time.
When we design a website for better user experience, while keeping it accessible, we are actually future-proofing it from repeated search engine algorithm changes.
Google asks webmasters here to design sites for users, not search engine crawlers. The search engine crawler is somewhat like a visually challenged person. It can only read text. It can not see images and stylesheets nor can it understand audio. It ignores Javascript or Ajax. Its view of a web page can be very different from that of a user. The goal of a search engine crawler is to close this gap between human web browsing and machine crawling. At the same time, the search engine also tries to rank a website based on its user experience. This is why there are high marks conforming to accessibility standards.
This is why sometimes good SEOs should practise their art with blindfolds.
