Last Gasp Of Black Hat SEO!

Friday, January 30th, 2009
Mugambo asked:


Yes indeedy! Judgment Day is visited unto the black hat seo brethren with a mighty vengeance that was foretold from the day the first scroll of code was writ in script!

Okay, enough with the pseudo biblical babble and down to business. Just in case you are not conversant with the term black hat seo, here’s a brief explanation:

Black hat seo methods are search engine optimization techniques and strategies that fall outside the guidelines and purview of the major search engines with the intent of manipulating the position of one’s website to a far more strategic location on those search engines’ results index.

The objective of this type of seo is to game the search engines in order to attract a ton of internet traffic in as short a time frame as possible. The opposite of black hat seo is known as white hat seo. Most cream-of-the-crop black hat seo practitioners have cloaking, coding and programming skills and employ(ed) self-designed software to game the search engines.

Black hat seo techniques by their very nature are short-lived and the black hatters are well aware of this. You see these techniques involve (or at any rate used to) capitalizing on a weakness or loophole in the search engine algorithms or manufacturing such a weakness and then aggressively exploiting that flaw before the search engines caught on. In other words black hat seo has always been a race against the search engines, with the black hat webmasters ever trying to stay one step ahead!

OLD SCHOOL BLACK HAT SEO TECHNIQUES

Being a step ahead of the search engines used to be relatively simple for the sole reason that the search engine algorithms of the day really were rather basic and crude compared to the situation of today. Some of the more pervasive and better known techniques were keyword stuffing which quite often went hand in hand with the application of invisible text.

Invisible text is merely text that is the same color as the background color of the web page on which that text is located, thus being invisible to the human eye, but readily accessible to a search engine robot. People who used such techniques would stuff their website homepage (or any page whose position on the SERPs they wished to manipulate) with their most sought after keyword, in some cases inserting that keyword hundreds of times as invisible text.

Of course the search engines got smarter, caught on and quickly fixed such loopholes.

Generally, as a rule, black-hat seo webmasters never used their main sites to pursue their shady techniques because they were well aware that the penalty if caught was death; death in the sense that any website found employing such black hat seo methods, was banned and forever removed from the universe of know search! So as mentioned previously, the black hatters never adopted such shady techniques on their main websites but instead used disposable websites with multiple back-links pointing back to their main sites.

Which naturally begs the question, since the search engines were quite capable of crawling those back links, why didn’t they then penalize the destination website huh?

Good question indeed, and here is the answer; because then it would be very simple for a competitor to get rid of their competition by getting that competitors website banned by setting up such a black-hat operation with the destination URL being that of the competition and not that of the black hatter’s website!

With that comforting piece of knowledge in mind the black hat seo webmasters were able to conduct their business, traipsing a step ahead of the search engines and making a killing. Besides when the search engines caught on the black hatters didn’t have to close shop right away for that particular black hat op; there was still plenty of money to be made from gullible marketers who believed in overnight success and riches.

All the webmaster had to do was provide evidence (screenshots and testimonials) of how much money they were making from their system, and before you could say ka-ching, more money was rolling in from that defunct system through sales from people eager to duplicate the black hatter’s success.

THE BIGGEST NAMES IN BLACK HAT SEO RESIGN THEMSELVES TO WHITE HAT TECHNIQUES!

Alas for the black-hat seo brethren, soon enough the search engines had closed the one-step-ahead gap to a half-step ahead! Fast forward to today and there is no step-ahead gap! The search engines are way too smart and getting even smarter still, so much so that there really is no profit to be had anymore from darker-than-shade-of-grey seo techniques. Perhaps that explains why so many cream-of-the-crop black hatters have finally conceded to pursuing white hat seo techniques.

But remember what I said about extra-monetization of defunct seo techniques; there are plenty of gullibles out there who are willing to shell out hefty sums in hopes of fast-tracking their internet marketing campaign. And make no mistake black hat seo software usually commands a hefty price sticker on the premise that it is going to make the purchaser a bucket load of money in next to no time at all. But you and I of course know that such will not happen!

REMEMBER TO BE FOREWARNED IS TO BE FOREARMED!

So if you stumble upon some advert that makes obviously outrageous claims yet still seems seductively appealing like the following example: “Internet Marketer Gets $67 Million In Google Pay-Per-Click Ads Free” just rein in that raging beast of temptation deep inside you that can barely restrain itself and recite the following: “A Fool And His/Her Money Are Easily Parted!”

Adams Gill asked:


White Hat SEO Vs Black Hat SEO

There are a lot of search engine all over the internet. If you do a little research about search engines than we come to know that there are 3 major search engines on the internet and we are very familiar with them. On the internet every person uses these search engines for different kind of searches.

1.Google

2.Yahoo

3.MSN

Every online business wants their self at the top of these top3. There is a king who is leading the market of search engines that is Google. So the majority of people on the internet use Google to find their desired service and information. All the search engines have their own algorithms the methods that evaluate the importance of a website. They also have given the guideline and criteria of a quality website. Everybody has to optimize their website according to the guideline. There are two kinds of people in SEO. One is that who follows the rules and regulation give by the search engines and the other is that who don’t follow them.

Am talking about the two techniques

1.White hat SEO

2.Black hat SEO

These techniques are very important to know because all your success based on them. Here the most important thing to choose is that what technique you are going to use. If you going to cheat the search engine just for getting the top results that means you are going to use the Black Hat SEO technique, if you think that you’ll follow the roles of search engines and will make the website for humans. That means you are going to use White SEO technique. This is very important to know the distinguish between Black Hat SEO and White Hat SEO.

White hat SEO:

As the name shows itself that an ethical way of SEO (search engine optimization) is called White hat SEO. The entire guide lined given by all search engines on their guideline page. There you can read all the requirements that a search engine wants in your website. Search engines don’t want that anyone who break their rules with the unethical techniques. As they want to give the best results to the person who is looking for an information. Search engine says that make pages for humans neither for search engines. Here I want to show you the some original guidelines quotes given by the major search engines that will make you easy to learn white hat SEO.

All search engines webmaster’s guidelines are about White Hat SEO

Google’s Guidelines:

Quality guidelines - basic principles

• Make pages for users, not for search engines. Don’t deceive your users or present different content to search engines than you display to users, which is commonly referred to as “cloaking.”

• Avoid tricks intended to improve search engine rankings. A good rule of thumb is whether you’d feel comfortable explaining what you’ve done to a website that competes with you. Another useful test is to ask, “Does this help my users? Would I do this if search engines didn’t exist?”

• Don’t participate in link schemes designed to increase your site’s ranking or PageRank. In particular, avoid links to web spammers or “bad neighborhoods” on the web, as your own ranking may be affected adversely by those links.

• Don’t use unauthorized computer programs to submit pages, check rankings, etc. Such programs consume computing resources and violate our Terms of Service. Google does not recommend the use of products such as WebPosition Gold™ that send automatic or programmatic queries to Google.

Quality guidelines - specific guidelines

• Avoid hidden text or hidden links.

• Don’t employ cloaking or sneaky redirects.

• Don’t send automated queries to Google.

• Don’t load pages with irrelevant words.

• Don’t create multiple pages, subdomains, or domains with substantially duplicate content.

• Don’t create pages that install viruses, trojans, or other badware.

• Avoid “doorway” pages created just for search engines, or other “cookie cutter” approaches such as affiliate programs with little or no original content.

• If your site participates in an affiliate program, make sure that your site adds value. Provide unique and relevant content that gives users a reason to visit your site first.

Yahoo’s Guidelines

• Original and unique content of genuine value

• Pages designed primarily for humans, with search engine considerations secondary

What Yahoo! Considers Unwanted

• Pages that harm accuracy, diversity or relevance of search results

• Pages dedicated to directing the user to another page

• Pages that have substantially the same content as other pages

• Sites with numerous, unnecessary virtual hostnames

• Pages in great quantity, automatically generated or of little value

• Pages using methods to artificially inflate search engine ranking

• The use of text that is hidden from the user

• Pages that give the search engine different content than what the end-user sees

• Excessively cross-linking sites to inflate a site’s apparent popularity

• Pages built primarily for the search engines

• Misuse of competitor names

• Multiple sites offering the same content

• Pages that use excessive pop-ups, interfering with user navigation

• Pages that seem deceptive, fraudulent or provide a poor user experience

MSN’s Guidelines:

• Use only well-formed HTML code in your pages. Ensure that all tags are closed, and that all links function properly. If your site contains broken links, MSNBot may not be able to index your site effectively, and people may not be able to reach all of your pages.

• In the visible page text, include words users might choose as search query terms to find the information on your site.

• Loading pages with irrelevant words in an attempt to increase a page’s keyword density. This includes stuffing ALT tags that users are unlikely to view.

• Using hidden text or links. You should use only text and links that are visible to users.

• Using techniques to artificially increase the number of links to your page, such as link farms.

Black hat SEO:

Those people who use black hat SEO techniques they feel search engine as an enemy. They don’t follow their guidelines and use all the unethical ways to achieve the top ranking. They know that their success will not for long time.

Here are some black SEO techniques

Doorway Pages

Doorway pages are also called entry pages, jump pages and gateway pages etc. these pages are full of keywords made for the search engine to have high rankings. These don’t give any information to the humans on these pages usually the phrase written “Enter”. As far as search engines are concern they don’t like doorway pages at all. Well you can have these keywords by their proper placement in the content and also in title and Meta tags.

Link Farms

The strategy is all about creating sites for ranking purpose. So they can get more back links which will help them in SERPs. These sites don’t have any purpose. Search engines don’t like this as all. Have multiple domain linking to your main websites is good but have the same content or not useful information isn’t good at all according to Google.

Identical Content

Don’t use identical content within your sites. Copied content won’t work on search engine. Never make your content by just copying the other websites material. King Search engine Google banned the sites using this strategy.

Clocking:

Cloaking is a method that allows you to show different pages for human and different ones for search engines. That is also not an ethical way of SEO as major search don’t like these methods. People also use to hide their strategies from SEO firms. The reason is that they actually miss leading the search engine as well as they miss leading the people as well. Search engine can’t reach the actual page Meta tags. Therefore they usually banned these sites.

Hidden Text:

This strategy is also for adding extra keywords within the website. For that purpose they hide those keywords by coloring them. People can’t see that words but search engine do. When they come to know they kick out the website.

Automated software:

Don’t use any automated software for the promotion purpose. They don’t really work and sometime they caused for banned a website. Don’t relay on them.

Gray hat SEO:

Use of black Hat SEO to achieve the white hat SEO results this term is called Grey hat SEO. Black hat SEO is wrong but not that wrong. They online get wrong when we miss use it. Like clocking not well but If we do the proper use and after clocking the page the people get the exact information what they are looking for. That’s only about the negative minded people who feel the search engines as their enemy and use the right techniques in wrong way.

Conclusion:

The people who are using the Black Hat SEO they actually are not only cheating with search engines they are also making people fool to show them that they are on the top and we can take your sites at top of every search engine guaranteed. Here I want to mention that no search engine refer anybody who offers guaranteed top ranking because nobody can give you that without following the roles and regulations. It might be possible but not for the long time for very short you can have. What will happen next your website will go into the darkness? They won’t inform you. There are no searches for you in the search engine. You’ll loss the 60- 80 % traffic. Now you can’t claim to any person or search engine. Your query to search engine will be delete as spam. This plenty will be a great financially loss for you.

Appliqués and Fun Recommendations For Making Your Own Red Hat

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009
Trevor Price asked:


Red hat appliqués are a great way to personalize and customize your red hat. If you’re a member of the Red Hat Society, then you already know the importance of releasing yourself from the confines of what matches and what doesn’t. Why not take it one step further and decorate your red hat to reflect your own personal style?

For a list of items and decoration ideas that will help you customize your red hat, keep reading.

Stick a Feather In Your Hat

Every red hat needs a feather. Whether it’s a ring of fake feathers plucked from a purple boa or a beautiful peacock feather perfectly placed, your hat will be fit to be tied.

To attach the feathers to your red hat, you can use a glue gun or actually sew the feathers onto it. Simply, wrap the thread tightly around the feather quill and through it once to secure it.

Buttons

Dig deep into your sewing box and you’ll likely find thousands of mismatched and lost buttons that are looking for a home. There’s that jeweled button from your favorite blouse or maybe the top button from your wedding dress - so, why not take those memories and add them as your new red hat appliqués? Simply sew each button on in a ring shape or any wild pattern that you like.

Trinkets and Baubles

A jeweled bead, a shiny trinket, a string of old pearls - they all work. Remember, anything goes on a red hat and the more eye-catching or over the top, the better. So, dig through those craft drawers and scrapbooking supplies and start digging up some “bling” for your next red hat project.

Go Full Bloom

Real or silk, flowers are a beautiful way to dress up your red hat. If you’re using real flowers, attach them with a ribbon or pin to hold them place, but loose enough that you can remove them at the end of the day or before they wilt.

Silk flowers, though not as fragrant, are a great substitute that will never wilt. You can attach them by sewing them in place or gluing them on. And remember, opt for something big, bold and positively stunning.

Purple Ribbon

The quintessential purple ribbon is a popular accessory on most hats belonging to members of the Red Hat Society. To add your own, simply pick up a strip of ribbon at any craft store and glue it in place at key points. Alternatively, you can sew it on.

Don’t forget to have fun with your red hat appliqués - this is a chance to express yourself, your memories and all the things in this world that are beautiful to you. Don’t worry about matching or looking great, just enjoy!

And in that enjoyment, part of the fun involves the creative and different looks of those hats among the women who meet together. This only adds to the enjoyment of the friendships already established and helps to make for another great gathering.

I Thought Only Kids Like Wearing Clothes and Crazy Hats That Make Them Look Silly

Monday, January 26th, 2009
Muna wa Wanjiru asked:


You will find there are various types of crazy hats that people like to wear. While most of these hats designed they are meant for occasions where you will need to brave the elements there are others that you can wear for fun. One type of hat that you can wear for fun is that of crazy hats. At this point you are probably saying that only kids like wearing clothes and crazy hats that make them look silly.

You would then find that you are wrong as there are plenty of adults who will wear these crazy hats especially at costume parties, Halloween parties and just for fun to please their kids. To find the different crazy hats you can look for sources that will provide you with this help.

In each of these sources you will be shown the basic steps that are required to make crazy hats. The main thing that you need to remember is that the thickness of the hat will mean the difference between the crazy hats lasting for long time.

To make your crazy hats requires nothing more than having a number of different sized papers at hand. These can be of a multihued paper, newspaper, colored wrapping paper and even lightweight poster board. The other items that you will require is that of cutting art tools, marker pens, ribbons, sequins and anything else your imagination tells you.

This is the best thing that you will find with these crazy hats. As you have no need to buy any of these items the cost of making and wearing these hats is very low. To help you make your crazy hats you can ask your kids to help out. The internet is also another way for you to see the different styles of crazy hats..

Once you have this basic step down for your crazy hats, you can then decide on the thickness that you want for the hat. The styling of the crazy hats can be that of a pirates hat, a Napoleon hat, a bishops hat, a corporal’s or military hat, a pillbox or even a painter’s hat. All of these styles are possible with your crazy hats.

When you are making your crazy hats you should see about following some instructions if you have forgotten the process of making these crazy hats. At any rate once you have gone a few steps into the process of making these crazy hats you should have no problems with making them.



HORACE

To Black Hat or not to Black Hat

Monday, January 26th, 2009
Andreas Sundstrom asked:


Search engine optimisation, or “Seo”, has for quite some time been the ultimate goal for many webmasters. To begin with there really was not all that difficult, but as the Internet is evolving exponentially so does the competition - especially for any term that has money making powers.

Based on what you do to promote the search engine rankings of your site, it could be summed up as white-, black- or grey hat methods. The first mentioned being allowed things like putting only genuinely usable for your site, while the black hat tactic would be strategies that the great search engines like google, yahoo and msn are not going to like one bit - spamming other people’s blogs and forums with links to your site, for instance.

Logically enough, the grey hat methods land in the middle of “wrong and right” and are things that you could quite possibly bring through, on condition that you use the guidelines with care. For your plain vanilla webmaster distinguishing between these methods is not regularly all that simple, particularly with so many gurus offering to sell us their most up-to-date superior suggestion when it comes to achieving rankings and making money online.

If money is all you care about…

The ethics of the matter aren’t maybe as clear cut as some would have you believe either.

On the one hand it’s by all means clear that super seo’ed adsense sites filled with no-good text - that could equally well read “ga ga ja da” or some resembling blabber - are of zero value to the committed Internet user, and no one likes to have their pet bulletin board or blog spammed with barefaced advertising for dodgy merchandize that promise to increase sexual potency. As the search engines make their living on serving up relevant and priceless education, it’s purely rational that they do nit interpret on these black hat sites and methods with forgiving eyes.

On its side, the Internet is literally made up of it’s users and provided that you aren’t breaking any real laws, you are free to produce content in whatever way you wish to. If you desire to engineer a blog farm consisting of hundreds of blogs that has zero value to human visitors, there is nobody but time and cost constraints stopping you from doing so.

Those who do this are in it completely for the money - they quickly produce large amounts of webpages that targets any one keywords they can monetize in some way. The ambition of these sites isn’t to give the visitor anything of value, but to get him or her to click on an advert that will take him somwhere else where he will hopefully spend some money instead.

So in a way, this is in fact nought but a marketing tactic, and some people are reportedly making a most good living using similar business model.

For the “friendly and polite webmaster” though, who just have the desire to tell folks about his hobby or wants to offer folks real products and services, it is presumably an adequate idea to be careful with anything that could be accused as black hat search engine optimisation.

Not due to the fact that it’s morally a bit thin, but seeing that it most likely will hurt his bottom line in time.

Bad Impacts of Using Black Hat Techniques in SEO

Saturday, January 24th, 2009
William King asked:


An online entrepreneur would like his website to be the first name in the result that search engines throw up for relevant topics. At times, you must have come across a certain Search Engine Optimizer (SEO) that guarantees a place of your website in the top 10 results. This is exactly what you want, but exactly something you mustn’t buy!

No company on earth can assure you a forefront place in the search engines. There exists no SEO tools that can make your site attain overnight popularity, but what exists are merely some tricks, which the SEO firms use to make some quick bucks. However, their tool will do your site anything but good. Assume that this works and your site is right on the top of the search results, and stays for quite a period of time. But no sooner than the search engines get across these tricks, than they will impose a penalty. That’s what a black hat SEO is – fooling the search engines. For the benefit of one’s own business, one should shy away from such SEO firms and avoid the following things:

Surfing pages with keywords:

Cramming the pages of your website with the main words, fonts and color, etc., can easily make the search engine find out that the result will be degrading for their website and will get you banned, like for instance, getting banned from the output of Google or Ask Jeeves.

Invisible text:

This is almost the same as cramming the key words. Invisible text is considered a big spam by the search engines and can be extremely harmful for your website, so why use it in the first place?

Doorway pages:

These are the non-existent or the fake pages which are accustomed to being displayed for specific words or phrases which are viewed mainly by the search engines rather than the visitors. The entire logic behind the building of a Search Engine Optimizer is to enhance the experience of the user, and getting web pages that no living person can ever view will surely not be viewed as immoral. Many main search engines like Google, etc. have severe policies to combat doorway pages.

Linking farms:

Many popular search engines are against artificial linking like link stuffing and link farms, etc. So linking farms will do nothing but get your site banned from the database of the search engine.

It can be concluded that whatever the search engines view as being spam or junk, is banned by them. Most of the techniques are bound to get you result in the short-term, but in the long-run, a ban or a flag is all that you will get. Moreover, using a black hat SEO also raises serious doubts on the credibility of your website and business that you’re pursuing online.

So rather than opting for a SEO, its better to get your site fixed by page optimization. And while doing it, it’s better not to keep in mind the search engines. The main priority should be the benefit of your end-customers. If you’re being loyal to them, the net result will automatically follow and instead of gaining popularity by immoral means, you’ll gain it even without these SEO, and the search engines respect that!

The Various Types Of Pink Hats

Saturday, January 24th, 2009
MaryAnn Farnsworth asked:


What color reminds you of femininity? For most people that color is pink. With the exception of neon pink, it portrays grace and sophistication like no other color.

Red Hats For The Red Hat Society Gals

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009
MaryAnn Farnsworth asked:


Every once in a while you may see a group of women wearing extravagant red and purple hats. These women are members of the Red Hat Society, an organization of women. This social group of women was created in 1998 and has grown to about 1.5 million members. One of the few requirements to joining the society is wearing a red, purple or pink hat.

By wearing the extravagant hats, the women share a common bond. Fun is to be had when one joins as the group promotes imagination, creativity, love of life and friendship.

The Red Hat Society is made up of local chapters, which include a Queen, Vice Queen, Red Hatters and Pink Hatters. Women who are over age 50, called Red Hatters, wear a red hat and on their birthday a purple hat. For ladies under 50, also known as Pink Hatters, a pink hat is the correct attire and a lavender hat on their birthday.

It’s not uncommon to find Red & Pink Hatters in unique hand decorated hats. Some may even call these hats crazy, extreme or lavish, but its all in the name of fun. The hats really range from simple to outlandish, to just conveying a favorite pastime. For example, a woman who likes to pull the handle on a lot machine may be seen in a hat that has been decorated with dice, cards, chips, tule, lace and even a train.

Many members love the attention their crazy red hat stirs. Some women hand decorate their own hat giving it that personal touch, while others choose a more refined simple look, as personalities are endless so are the different styles of hats worn to any given event.

Some local chapters like to keep with a specific theme and as such its members may all wear matching hats and outfits. To wear matching hats and clothes would be a decision made at the chapter level and not by the society itself.

The possibilities of decorating a hat are endless. Many members wear hats with flashing lights, flowers, crystals, rhinestones, tule, lace, stuffed animals, etc. Although one must be careful not to make the hat too heavy for comfortable use. The next time you are trying to choose a hat, let your imagination run wild and have fun.

Cowgirl Hats are a Perfect Accessory for Any Female No Matter What Their Age

Wednesday, January 21st, 2009
Muna wa Wanjiru asked:


As you look at the different types of hats that people wear you will notice that some ladies love wearing these cowgirl hats. While this hat has the ability of providing a unique look to the way that you live there are ladies who love wearing these types of hats to show they have the ability of having fun no matter where they are. The notion of looking like a cowgirl may be part of the reason why you will see people wearing these hats.

The addition of various decorative touches like feathers, ribbons and Indian decorations will also help to make these hats look more attractive. With all of these different uses for cowgirl hats you may be wondering at the different designs that you can see on these hats.

As there are many people who have a preference for wearing these cowgirl hats regardless of their lifestyle, you will find that these hats come in many different colors. Some of the colors will be the usual earthen colors that we see on these types of hats. Other cowgirl hats will be having colors that will go well with any clothing that you choose to wear.

The places where you can choose to buy your cowgirl hats. These places will range from a number of high end stores to the modest department stores. While most of these places will have a plentiful amount of cowgirl hats for you to look and buy, you might want to see what is available in a specialist hat store.

For the most part you can look for these Western hats in department stores, online stores and also from specialty shops. These are shops that sell many different western wear and supplies. From all of these places you will have a wide range of cowgirl hats that you can choose to buy.

When some of the ladies see these hats they feel the desire to wear one of them. This may happen even if you don’t live anywhere near the wild west. The reason for choosing these cowgirl hats will sometimes be that of a childhood dream. These can also be because you think that you will look ****.

Today you will find that these cowgirl hats are more of a fashion statement as well for many ladies. For others these hats can help them work when they are outdoors. You will find that buying and wearing cowgirl hats is the perfect accessory for any female no matter what their age.
