Once you've got them sorted out, scatter them strategically throughout your content, your headlines, and your sub-headers.


5. Avoid Cloaking - Site cloaking is the process of having one content for the users and an entirely different content for search engine spiders. This used to be popular few years back but now search engines have declared a ban on such practices.


6. Refrain from using popular keywords -  Don’t crowd your content with popular keywords such as “vacation” or “games”. Instead join a phrase before or after the popular keyword like “vacation tips” or “amazing games”.


7. Writing unique content - If the content in a site is fresh and new , there are high chances that it will be crawled quickly by the google crawler.


8. Adding new content regularly - If new content will  be added to our site then the google crawler will frequently visit our site to read the new content and in this way the rank our site will improve.


9. Never redirect to other domain - Redirecting to another domain sometimes results in banning from search engines. Search engines can be very hard to get back into if your site is banned by using redirection.


10. Dont hide text - Search engines understand CSS and font and background colors. They also recognize that a font-size of 1px is not going to be readable. Text that is hidden from your readers but visible to search engines is considered spam and will get your site banned.

What is Black Hat SEO

Black Hat SEO is normally defined as techniques that are being used in order to rank higher on different search engines using prohibted tactics and ways.This is considered as unethical SEO. Black Hat SEO is more frequently used by those who are looking for a quick financial return on their Web site, rather than a long-term investment on their Web site

A black hat SEO uses grey shaded techniques and does not abide by the rules and regulations of search engines.Some of the unethical techniques used by a Black Hat SEO are

1. Invisible Text - It is usually done by setting up text’s font colour same as to its background to make them hidden. It is done to attract more search engine spiders. However, it is not a good way of attracting search engine crawlers and search engine users.


2.  Keyword Stuffing - By using a long list of keywords which are not even on your website content will lead your site to be penalized by search engines. The keywords you will use should go with what is encapsulated on your web page content. They should be relevant and coherent.

3. Doorway pages. A doorway page is a page built specifically for the purpose of ranking well in the search engines and without any real content of its own, and which then links to the "real" destination page, or automatically redirects there. Doorway pages are a popular choice of some SEO firms, although Google has cracked down on this and many webmasters saw their pages disappear from the index. Some SEO firms call their doorway pages something else, in an effort to fool potential customers who know enough to know that they should avoid doorway pages. But a doorway page is still a doorway page even if you call it something else. 

Black Hat SEO improves search engine rankings by strategies considered to be spammy by search engines.Black hat methods adopt unethical methods to redirect visitors into their websites. Black hat techniques are easy to implement and therefore work in a swift manner. When caught by search engines the that site can be downgraded or in extreme cases thrown out.
