What is Black Hat SEO?
February 4th, 2007 by admin
Its been a month I didn’t update my website because I have a new project (build a website). This month I’ll started the post to describe black hat SEO.
First thing What is Black Hat SEO?
Wikipedia.org defines Black Hat SEO as “methods to try to improve rankings that are disapproved of by the search engines and/or involve deception.” This is a practice that has helped unethical companies make a quick buck while detroying the online reputation of some honest businessmen who didn’t realize they were being swindled. Black hat SEO will most likely result in your website being banned from major search engines, especially Google! You do not want this to happen. It takes between 3 months to 1 year to get your site listed on Google once it has been banned. Make sure that your SEO firm does not do the following:
- Create a redirect file that will send a user to a different page
- Hide text on a page
- Hide text in the source code
- Create thousands of nonsense pages that do not have original content
- Stuffing your content with keywords
- Creation of web pages that contain content that isn’t relevant to your business
- Links in your content to web pages that have no affiliation with your business
Trust me… if Google makes your website invisible, your online business will plummet. It’s just not worth it.
