Stuart,

Again, nice article from you… but as your quote here

Blackhat’s are willing to promote anywhere, get their sites indexed & ranked using any method possible. Problem is (and it’s a big problem), that most of the sites are low quality, have a huge page count (possibly cloaked). So even though the sites rank, they get reported or trip the filters & get dumped.

One man out there have rank 2 on 1st page in “buy cialis” using BH method. A man who have spammed link who have link on his site and its still number 2… And he still got the rank… Did you thing its all about possibility time of G to sniff Him ?

This article is from a few years ago but still rings true. People who are leaving comments should also post other ways to promote their site(s) and blog(s). I know one black hat promotion technique is posting vide0s with watermarks on all the various porn tube sites out there.

great blog. thanks for the tips. really precise and concise. It sucks to constantly think about the SEO part of development but it seems the white hat community have solid answers for these issues. I used some black hats stuff but I can’t risk my time and efforts anymore. So thank you.

While your suggestions are interesting, they would also need to be tempered by other kinds of links or google will turn their nose up on your ugly linking profile.

The article really is interesting, though it is also not new these days. I have also read about black and white SEO. I guess, we really have to also observe some ethical issues when doing web marketing. I don not quite agree that web marketing and SEO is about doing every possible way can.

You cannot do this sort of promotion if a client is paying you money to do SEO properly. With personal sites you can take risks however with clients you cannot.

SEO’s tend to take a much more consultative approach these days with Corporate clients so you avoid much of the hassles of actually doing the onsite optimization, rather you design a custom solution for the client

These methods are fine for personal websites, but I’m wondering how you are going to do this for corporate websites? Because it looks fairly unusual to promote corporate websites on blogs and forums etc. I guess directories would be fine, be there has to be more too it
