  • creates a poor user experience directly because of the black hat SEO techniques utilized on the Web site
  • unethically presents content in a different visual or non-visual way to search engine spiders and search engine users.
Most of the techniques in black hat SEO was once legitimate but there are people who are desperate to get to the top of the search engine overdo things as a result they are now considered illegal or against the TOS of most search engines.

Here in this post you will know few of the most common black hat SEO techniques:

  • Keyword Stuffing – This process usually overload the contents of the websites with keywords alone and nothing else. There ain't much of information but a bunch of keywords found all over the contents of the website.
  • Link Farming – These are links to a lot of unrelated websites. It is always good to stay in the box, meaning link only to those sites that has the same contents with your site.
  • Doorway Pages – These are pages of the sites that are use to trick the search engine spiders. Regular visitors won't be able to see or notice this pages as they are use to automatically redirect to another website or landing page. These pages are usually stuffed with keywords pointing to another site
  • White Texts / Hidden Texts – This technique can be use so that users won't be able to see that the sites they are viewing is stuffed with keywords all over page. But even in white color, spiders can still detect the white texts resulting to higher search engine ranking. This mainly fools the visitors.
