I think use keyword only maintain Google SEO guidelines. Do not stuff keywords in title or any other places in website.

What you want to say? If you're not using keyword in any place in website then why you need to maintain the Google SEO guideline? I'm not agree with you and I believe that all the webmaster who have a little bit of knowledge about website, will not agree with you.
Anyway, thanks for the comment!
