Thread: Spamming Techniques In SEO Guidelines

[B]Invisible Tex[/B] : Hiding keywords by using the same color font and background is one of the oldest tricks in the spammer's book. These days, it's also one of the most easily detected by search engines.

[B]Keyword Stuffing[/B] : Keyword stuffing refers to the practice of loading a webpage with keywords in an attempt to manipulate a site's ranking in Google's search results.When deciding upon keyword placement we all try to get the most out of our target keywords saturation.
In the same time no one wants to get penalized by accidentally inserting too many keywords in the page copy, or by including too many words between H1 tags. Since search engines would never publish the exact numbers for maximally alowed keyword frequency or keyword prominence.
All we can do is just study top pages in SEPRs and make more or less informed guesses. Or we can conduct an experiment, and calculate the average numbers for top pages in the results of the major search engines: [B]Google[/B], [B]Yahoo[/B]! and [B]MSN[/B].

[B]Unrelated Keywords[/B] : Never use popular keywords that do not apply to your site's content.You might be able to trick a few people searching for such words into clicking at your link, but they will quickly leave your site when they see you have no info on the topic they were originally searching for. If you have a site about Medical Science and your keyword include "Shahrukh Khan " and "Britney Spears" , that would be considered unrelated keywords.

[B]Hidden Tags[/B] : To help you get a better handle on all the Form´s hidden options I´ve listed them all below with the correct HTML tags. All you have to do is cut and paste the ones you want and specify a correct value. The only required hidden option to use the form (on sites not using frames)

[B]Duplicate Sites[/B] : We have several Duplicate Sites. We created the duplicate sites (similar sites) about two years ago. It has some traffic for the first yeat. Then don't have traffic for the following year until now.
We concentrated on one site about one year. We write a lot of unique contes for the site but still not traffic.
Did the google ban us already because of duplicate sites. what should I do? Reinclusin report? We don't want to shut down the sites as it still have a little traffic.

[B]Link Farms[/B] : Search engines are cracking down on certain types of link programs. Even if you're an innocent member, you could find your web site penalised.

We have always said that increasing the amount of inbound links to your web site has a very positive effect on your search engine ranking and overall web traffic. This is because most search engines factor in link popularity when ranking your site.

Many web sites around the world over time have tried to significantly increase their inbound links by joining links programs, often referred to as link farms.A link farm is a system where all the members are linked to each other via a common set of link pages. The result is that all members have a links page with the other members' web addresses on them. Many of these link programs have several hundred or even thousands of members, so by joining you have almost instant access to hundreds of other web sites that point links to your site. This can lead to your site looking very "popular".

[B]Link Meta spams[/B] : Defining Meta Tage is much easier than explaining how they are used, and by which search engines. The reason is very few search engines clearly lay out what they do and do not look at, and how much emphasis they put on any one factor. So, well start with the easy part.

Hi,

In terms of SEO, the term "spam" or "spamdexing" is used to describe techniques used to artificially inflate the perceived relevancy of inferior web sites. Throughout history, various techniques have been implemented with varying degrees of success. Examples of these spam techniques include hiding links, cloaking, link farming, keyword stuffing and using style controls to mask content. Since spamdexing practices are constantly evolving, SEOToolSetTM has decided to hold our Certified Analysts, Organizations and Partners to a common SEO Tool-Set TM Code of Conduct instead of outlawing certain bad practices. However, we believe that it is important to know what the major search engines specifically say about spam and what practices are definitely not allowed if you would like to rank in top-tier search engines. Plus, every ethical SEO should know how to properly report any spam that they see so the search engines can correct their algorithm accordingly.

Below are list of sites where you can report spamming [url]http://www.search-marketing.info/search-engines/report-spam.htm[/url]

Thanks for the post. Very clear and well written advice. Cheers

Thanks for guiding. It is very much useful for SEO when doing website promotion to avoiding spamming and being penalised.

1. Blog Spamming
o This method of spamdexing or Black Hat SEO is done by automatically posting random comments or promoting commercial services to blogs, wikis, guestbooks, or other publicly accessible online discussion boards through using different spamming softwares. According to SEO Philippines consultants, adding links that point to the spammer's web site artificially increases the site's search engine ranking. An increased ranking often results in the spammer's commercial site being listed ahead of other sites for certain searches, increasing the number of potential visitors and paying customers.

2. Comment Spamming
o Similar to blog spamming, comment spamming is a form of link spam that has arisen in web pages that allow dynamic user editing such as wikis, blogs, and guestbooks. It can be problematic because agents can be written that automatically randomly select a user edited web page, such as a Wikipedia article, and add spamming links.

3. Wiki Spam
o Using the open editability of wiki systems to place links from the wiki site to the spam site. The subject of the spam site is often unrelated to the wiki page where the link is added. In early 2005, Wikipedia implemented a default "nofollow" value for the "rel" HTML attribute. According to SEO Philippines consultants, links with this attribute are ignored by Google's PageRank algorithm. Forum and Wiki admins can use these to discourage Wiki spam.

4. Referrer Spam
o This technique involves making repeated web site requests using a fake referrer url that points to the site the spammer wishes to advertise. Sites that publicize their access logs, including referrer statistics, will then end up linking to the spammer's site, which will in turn be indexed by the search engines as they crawl the access logs. According to SEO Philippines consultants, this benefits the spammer because of the free link, and also gives the spammer's site improved search engine placement due to link-counting algorithms that search engines use.
