    Most Commonly Found Black Hat SEO methods :

    1 Keyword Stuffing: Here, we are not talking about the controlled way of keyword inclusion as discussed in our last post (blog post seo). But they actually stuff so many keywords in the meta tag as well as page body so many times (in some cases keyword-only pages as well may be there) that these pages will sabotage search engine’s attempt to find pages with the right content as indicated in the meta tags.

    Stuffed keywords are not only seen in meta tags but also in hidden text, Image alt tags, div regions, areas beyond the screen co-ords, noscript region, very small font-sized text, text with background color etc.

    #2 Doorway pages: These are the pages that do not contain any good information readable by the humans but are maintained for search engine bots alone. Usually, stuffed with keywords and links alone, they are primarily there to attract search visits via great page ranks that they usually have. The reader, after landing there, will be automatically redirected to some other page (even unrelated to what they searched for). BMW was penalized for this approach, as I understand.

    Doorway pages are also known as entry pages or jump pages.

    Please note that the Landing pages are not Doorway pages. Landing pages are usually used to provide the content summary to the search visitors and they are genuine in nature.

    #3 Cloaking: Cloaking is an attempt to fool the search engines by providing a particular version of a page for the search engine bots to index and actually another version to the human visitors to read. This is a different form of doorway pages, in a way. The methodology uses IP addresses, user-agent information etc to distinquish between bots and humans.

    #4 Link farming: Link farms refer to a huge number of backlinks provided to a particular URL to improve its page rank and hence improved search hits. Link farm approaches can be via manual link exchanges (reciprocal links), automatic exchanges via scripts, bulk linking, multi-way linking etc. Usually, link farming is considered spam when large numbers of inbound links are coming in to a particular URL especially from totally unrelated content.

    #5 Google bombing: This refers to the way of artificially inflating the search rank (positioning within the search results) of a particular page via providing huge number of links with the same anchor text pointing to that page. Google bombing was very common until a year ago before Google changed their algorithms (Remember how some of those evil minded people spoilt Microsoft’s name via Google bombing. The same had happened to George Bush as well. In both cases, some funny literal search resulted in hits to the pages mentioned above)

    Usually, the result set fetched in via Google bombing contain many irrelevant links.

    "Black Hat" techniques are unethical methods and search engine does not like these techniques. It is about short cut methods for getting keyword ranking very fast. There are very black hats methods like, overuse of keywords, doorway pages, Invisible text, etc. So one should not use these type of techniques for getting fast result otherwise you should suspend from search engine.

    Black hat is a unethical technique for getting fast result on search engine. I think it should not use for a site because search engine can suspend any time on his search box.

    Black Hat search engine optimization is customarily defined as techniques that are usеd tо get higher search rankings in аn unethical manner. These black hat SEO techniques usuаlly include оne or mоre оf thе fоllowіng characteristics:

    breaks search engine rules аnd regulations
    creates a poor user experience directly beсause of the black hat SEO techniques utilized оn thе Web site
    unethically presents content іn a dіfferent visual or non-visual waу to search engine spiders аnd search engine users.

    A lot of what іs knоwn аs black hat SEO aсtuallу used tо be legit, but some folks went a bit overboard and nоw thеse techniques аrе frowned uроn by thе general SEO community at large. These black hat SEO practices will асtually provide short-term gains іn terms оf rankings, but іf уou аre discovered utilizing thеѕе spammy techniques оn уоur Web site, yоu run thе risk of bеіng penalized bу search engines. Black hat SEO basically iѕ а short-sighted solution tо а long-term problem, whіch is creating a Web site thаt provideѕ both a great user experience and all that goеs with that.

    Black hat techniques are SEO tactics that are OK to promote your website until Google finds out about them!

    Those techniques which are forbidden by search engines are known as black hat technique. Black hat techniques give result very fast. But that result is not for a long time. It is not a good technique for some one who is planing to doing online business for a long time. White hat technique is always good.

    Actually most of the people don't do black hat intentionally. most of them actually don't know which one is black hat. :)
    its true. but some experts do black hat.and i am sure that its far more hard than white hat. so avoiding this term is totally cool :)

    Most of the 'blackhat methods' listed above are antiquated, or were never blackhat at all. Several of the real techniques don't even focus on SEO at all in order to get relevant traffic, like cookie stuffing, e-whoring, heavy Craiglist advertising, etc. The most prevalent techniques today involve using automated scripts to scrape content, finding good candidate sites to put backlinks on, i-frame/misdirect pages, or other ways to speed up building a site's links and authority.

    Black hat SEO is both a myth and a reality we have to face sooner or later as SEO practicioners. While I abide by probably one of the strictest SEO codes of ethics around and SEOptimise is a clean white hat SEO company company itself we still can’t deny that there is black hat SEO.
