title: Real pagination vs Next and Previous buttons
body: <p>By real pagination i mean something like this when in page 3:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;&lt;Previous 1 | 2 | {3} | 4 | 5 |...| 15 | Next&gt;&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>By Next and Previous buttons i mean something like this when in page 3:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;&lt;previous Next&gt;&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Performance wise im sure the Previous and Next Buttons are better since unlike the real pagination it doesn't require over-querying the database. By over-querying the database i mean  getting more information from the database than what you will need to display on the page.</p>
  
  <p>My theory is that the Previous and Next Buttons can drastically increase a site performance as it only requires the exact information you will need to display on a page, please correct me if im wrong on this.</p>
  
  <p>so, </p>
  
  <p>do users really have preference when it comes to this two options? </p>
  
  <p>is it just a Developer preference and its convenience?</p>
  
  <p>Which one do you prefer? why?</p>
  
  <p>*Note: Previous and Next Buttons are usually labeled Newer and older.</p>
