    Recently some of my SEO works are said spamming :confused: by many people. I applied the methods below:

    1. Social Bookmarking.
    2. Profile Link Building.
    3. Forum Posting.
    4. Blog Commenting.
    5. Link Wheeling.
    6. Article Submission.
    7. Yahoo Answer.
    8. Blog Creation.
    9. Directory Submission.

    So, please can you tell how can I get rid of being a spammer.

    if you create anything, for the sole purpose of tricking google, then you are spamming. for example:

    Article Submission
    spammer: spin articles that make no sense and mass post to article directories
    non-spammer: write high quality unique article that helps

    Yahoo Answers
    spammer: post your link on as many relevant questions you can find
    non-spammer: actually take the time to answer the question

    Create a website that people find interesting so it spreads by users.

    If you tactics are done in moderation so that it looks natural, then you are ok. If you your blog commenting and other post are unreadable or badly written, then it will be considered spam.

    Those are all ways of building links, and it is part of SEO. It is not spamming at all. It would only turn out to be spamming depending on how you do it. If you do it the wrong way, then that would probably turn out to be spamming.

    If you're blatantly doing any of those methods where it is obvious that you're only doing it to post your own links then that's spamming.

    With an exception of link wheeling all the other strategies are perfectly fine.

    if you got banned by submitting or posting links in yahoo answers then you're indeed a spammer.
    but if you don't get banned then youre not.

    just doing it the right way will put a distinction to it.

    Everything looked fine other then the link wheel. As far as i understand that is a frowned upon technique now.

    It is okay to do all those things as long as you do it the right way. Make sure to read Forum Rules before replying to posts. Your reply to posts should contain answers relevant to what was being asked. Also, in submitting articles, you have to be certain that you are submitting not just unique but high quality content.

    well, i think if you write single articles and use article spinning tools and then blast these articles of the same sense to different directories, then that is spamming...

    You mentioned that you have done Link Wheeling, which is a black Hat SEO technique. NOw you wonder that people call you spammer.

    too much of anything is bad. a moderate, well thought and time dedicated approach will yield good results and never be called as spamming. trying to achieve quick results by applying several tricks will somehow take you closer to spamming.

    Most of the sites which i see used these methods for ranking in top SERP and they get desired results I thing the spammer is one who post unnecessary irrelevant things and insert their links in the anchor text.
