Being Number 1 in SERP
I think being your site listed in top 1 ranking has many disadvantages. One of them is your site is prone to duplicate content since more people could copy your site's content. There will be also some competitors who will try to use your site's techniques just to let you down..
But I think the advantages of being number one in serp over weighs its disadvantages. So I still want to get the highest ranking in serp and accept the risk. That's a business and has great challenges to face...
I will still aim to make my site be in top one ranking, because I know that a site may get the highest chances or percentage to be clicked and visited by potential customers. This is because most visitors prefer to visit those sites that are listed in the highest position in serp.
So what's your opinion about this.. Kindly share your views and ideas...

Well for me being number one is an achievement... (well... who doesn't)
being worried about having your content duplicated is understandable .... since you are number one there are a lot out there who's gonna pirate your site out..
but hey.... you're number one.... be proud.... lol

Page Ranking
To be number one in page ranking means you achieve your goal and purpose. You gained lots of traffics/audience. Your site is popular, and you should be proud of it. When your site is popular, you can address them your plans and businesses.

If your content is index'd by google first, then you dont have to worry about duplicate content, because google knows that you are the original author of that content

Certainly. And of course, the most important thing, conversion.
Not all number 1 converts real good. There are some keywords that is not competitive, but gives good conversion.
Being number 1, most specially in a very competitive keyword is really a great achievement...

that's not always the case, although your number one in some keywords you are not yet guaranteed to get a lot of traffic, it is only an advantage because many of the internet user's when they are searching for something on the net they only look on the first page of the search so if your number one there's a big possibility that they would click your site.

We both know that traffic may help our site especially for the businessmen whose hands on to an online site business. The higher the traffic, better chance to increase your sales and that's good news for the businessmen. Being #1 on SERP is stunning especially on your competitors. They may feel like they've stabbed by your site for having little chance to bring traffic to their sites just because you're on the #1 spot.

Being number in 1 SERP is an SEO objective, so I don't think there's a disadvantage, maybe it's your advantage over your competitor, so it's up to them whether to duplicate your content or not, they're the one who'll penalized not you. just my input.

Hey I can be number 1 in SERP with this keyword? " sdsadqwsa"
Will it bring traffic? Of course not, because no one search for that keyword. Ranking on a search term with high volume of searches is your way to tons of traffic.

It's more pressure when you're site is in top rank because you have to maintain to the top but the best part is they all look up to you being the best
