Black Hat or just lousy SEO?

    Lousy SEO!?

    Take a look at this site: http://www.lookingyourbest.com/states/Indiana
    it ranks number one for the phrase "Breast Augmentation Indiana".

    It has thousands of links, but all internal pointing back to the homepage. Worst of all, almost all the pages seem to be exactly the same, with very small alterations. Why the heck is it ranked number one?

    Also, this site is ranked number one for the term "automatic knife" http://nicnac.net. Can you see the invisible text?!?! It's been ranked number one for many many months now. I just don't get it.

    Help me see the light DP gang

    One reason: age. The sites are old, 2000 for the first one and 1999 for the second one. Age is everything in google.

    I can't get onto the second site but if you see hidden text then email google about it. In 90% of cases google will ignore hidden text anyway but its always good to tell them.

    I dont see anything wrong with site 1, What do you mean by all internal pointing back to homepage??

    Site 2 is a black hat for sure, Long list of hidden keywords. report it.
