    Hi All,
    What is cloaking? Does Strategy Consulting use this technique?

    It is done by turning on the cloacking device :)

    Well, cloaking is when your text is invisible, you write your text in the same color as background. That way you could stuff more keywords but I think that is being penalized by G.

    That's different from what I think cloaking.

    quote from wiki

    Cloaking is a search engine optimization technique in which the content presented to the search engine spider is different from that presented to the users' browser; this is done by delivering content based on the IP addresses or the User-Agent HTTP header of whatever is requesting the page. The only legitimate uses for cloaking used to be for delivering content to users that search engines couldn't parse, like Macromedia Flash. However, cloaking is often used as a spamdexing technique, to try to trick search engines into giving the relevant site a higher ranking; it can also be used to trick search engine users into visiting a site based on the search engine description which site turns out to have substantially different - or even pornographic - content. For this reason some search engines threaten to ban sites using cloaking.

    That would be IP delivery or not? You deliver different pages do different ip's...

    Identification whether the arriving visitor is a search engine spider or a human is usually done either by checking the visitors' IP address, or his User-agent string.
