Episode description

sing old black-hat strategies will not just guarantee that you get heavily penalized. You will also be wasting your precious time and resources. Black-hat SEO tactics include link buying, keyword stuffing, and text-based copyediting. 

These tactics can spell doom for your business. The goal of keyword stuffing is to place as many exact-match keywords as possible throughout the content to make it look very relevant to the search. Search engines are becoming smarter by transitioning to latent semantic indexing (LSI). 

Remember to write for the reader, not for the search engines. There's a risk to allowing visitors to create profiles and leave comments on your site. It could become a channel that harbors spam messages and links to offending sites. Make sure your blog commenting section is set to "no follow" on outbound links.
