Some Techniques To Avoid Spam?
- Invisible Text. Text that is the same color as the background
pages; enables site owner to place more keywords on the page and
attract more spiders.
- Keyword Stuffing. Consists of placing as many relevant or irrelevant keywords and phrases as you possibly can in content and Meta tags.
- Unrelated Keywords. If you have a site about Depression
era glass bowls and your keywords include "Viagra" and "Britney Spears",
that would be considered unrelated keywords.
- Doorway Pages. Doorways are pages optimized only for
search engine spiders in order to attract more spiders, thus more users.
Usually optimized for just one word or phrase and only meant for
spiders, not users. Read more about doorway pages.
- Tiny Text/Alt Text. Tiny text consists of placing
keywords and phrases in the tiniest text imaginable all over your site.
Most people can't see them, but spiders can. Alt text spamming is
stuffing the alt text tags (for images) with unrelated keywords or
phrases.
- Mirror or Duplicate Sites. Don’t duplicate your site, name it something different, and submit it again. Search engines will know if you do this.
- Submitting Repeatedly. Submitting your site to a search
engine or directory repeatedly in a short period of time is a great way
to get your site banned, or at least delayed. Read more about site submission.
