Is SEO a legal way?

    As SEO consultants are doing their job well but sometimes it found that the targeted keyword based website is not able to meet up visitors requirements although they are advertising a lot. It's my concept we should be careful about the we are not cheating with the visitors via SEO. what do you think about it?

    Bottom line is that SEO is a very legal adn legitimate biz. Business owners are beginning to understand the importance of Google's 1st page off real estate... Which is why they are willing to actually pay for someone that can do it correctly.

    Well, its very important to use right keywords for your website... Otherwise your website may lose credibility.

    First, if your website is appearing for wrong keywords, this may increase your bounce rate and hence impact on organic rankings.

    Second, Google may penalize your website for over optimization (keyword stuffing).

    There are two types of SEO. The white hat and the black hat.
    White Hat SEO is legal.

    The way I see it is if someone can get top results the more power to them.
    They may have nothing to do with anything interesting but it may show their clients that it can be done. I would never hire someone to do SEO unless there site had good rank, traffic, search engine results (Not Paid Adwords) etc.
