Beware of Black Hat Techniques

In the race to gain rank, it is however natural and expected that someone out there would decide to use illegal optimization techniques that are unfortunately effective in making a site’s rank go up faster than normal. These techniques are called "black hat" terms in web design and optimization lingo.

Black hat techniques are dangerous to use. Even though indeed they could get your ranks up in no time, if a search engine finds out that your site is employing any of these techniques you could find yourself banned and removed from search engine result pages. So, in a sense, you’d find yourself losing the money that you invested in an optimizer that actually uses black hat techniques while the firm gets away with it.

Common black hat techniques include cloaking, which hides the site’s true content from the search engine spider, as well as link farming. If the SEO hints at using such ways, then you better steer clear from their services because it’s only you who loses something in the end.
