Black Hat SEO works, it really does! That annoys me... immensely. It's all well and good Google condemning black hat SEO, I just wish they acted on what they say and penalise sites that employ black hat techniques, and in real time. The unfortunate truth of the story is that they don't! Well not from recent evidence anyway. By the time they have identified these sites and applied the appropria

For newbies in the internet marketing world, white hat and black hat strategies may be a new term for them. These are strategies which are used by internet marketers in promoting websites on the net. Although there are some who would use both strategies just to get traffic but it will surely give some negative effects on the site that is being promoted. Lets take for example the search engines. SE can determine if an internet marketer, or SE optimizer is using a black hat strategy. The worst thing that could happen to the site is being banned in Google, Yahoo or other major search engines.For SEO and SEM professionals especially in the Philippines, avoid using black hat strategies in doing SEO jobs.

I have spent a lot of time outlining the right things to do for SEO - things that are typically called White Hat SEO. Some of the practices I have written about would even lean a bit towards the Gray Hat arena. I have even discussed the 3 different hats of a search engine optimizer. But I have never outlined Black Hat SEO Practices. These are content practices, techniques, or methodologies that are sure to get your blog or web site banned from one, or all, of the major search engines. I list these here to help draw the line between what is acceptable, and what is not acceptable to the search engines. I do not list these techniques to advocate Black Hat practices.

The following black hat SEO techniques should always be avoided. Why should you avoid these techniques? Well because they can get you banned from all the major search engines, and because they are also very very easy to detect ( increasing the chances of getting banned from the SERP’s) … (see them after the jump)
Keyword Stuffing - don’t put the same keyword again and again and again…and again. It is very easy for search engines to spot automatically, and even easier for an employee of theirs to spot. Try to use different forms of words, for example if your subject was search engine optimization, include SEO, Optimizing for Search Engines, etc…
Invisible text - Very easy to spot by search engines (how hard is it to see if the background is #FFFFFF and the text colour is also #FFFFFF (or even something like #FDFDFD…). Don’t do it.
Doorway or fake pages - sometimes these are harder to automatically detect, but you will still get caught.
