As a searchers we have one thing in mind that is we want relevant results and thats the same way the Search engines think too. Due to some people who are trying to trick the search engines, the search engines change the way they show results, It is all better thou to give us as searchers good relevant results. What does that mean to us as a searcher?

Well that means that we will be getting more relevant results from search engines. But from a SEO point of view this might change, as SEO want to get their websites on top and now they have to work more and harder to get thier site on top. But it is a good thing because not everyone can get into search results easily.
