First
off, if you have not beeing using blackhat search engine optimization
methods than you are doing SEO all wrong. Second, you may have the
wrong idea of what blackhat is. Most of the time when I talk to people
who don't use blackhat seo, they were told by Matt Cutts or some other
Google advocate that blackhat SEO is bad and is unethical or whatever
garbage. This is completely wrong.
Blackhat
SEO is basically any SEO. If you build links to your site, you are
basically doing blackhat seo. The thing is… You can't rank without
doing blackhat SEO unless you have some huge marketing budget where you
could somehow get links naturally. Cough…
Most
of us don't have a huge marketing budget therefore almost anyone doing
SEO is doing blackhat. Even the major SEO companies doing SEO for big
companies are using blackhat SEO. So if you are building any links to
your site, you too are part of the shady, unethical black hat seo
underground club (joking if you didn't catch my drift).
When
I think of blackhat I think of using automated programs. Basically
building tons of links to manipulate the search engines. I mean, we are
all trying to manipulate the search engines. This is Google's game and
by doing SEO, we need to figure out a way to win the game. We can go
the route of doing nothing, or do blackhat and build links so we can
eat, pay rent and do fun things. I choose the latter of the two.
Blackhat
seo does not have to do with scamming anyone or doing anything
unethical and if you disagree I think you should leave my blog right now
(this is not a joke).
Why Do Blackhat?
That
is like saying why build links. We do blackhat so we can rank.
WIthout blackhat or building links, we won't be ranking. Really this
question is kinda dumb, don't know why I even added it. But for those
of you scared to move over to the dark site, I will explain exactly how
we build links in other posts.
Blackhat SEO Tools
There
are many blackhat tools on the market which will basically automate the
process of building backlinks. When doing blackhat seo, you need to
realize that the whole idea is to automate as much of the backlinking
process as possible. THe more we can automate it, the better! Some may
disagree with me on this but for those on a budget, automating your
backlinking is very essential. I use a completely automated system
which does all the backlinking for me on all my sites. I do not even
own an SEO tool and when you get to this point, you will never want to
own a blackhat tool. But basically this system combines tons of
differnet tools so you can get all types of different link sources.
This also works well for using the funnel method which I explain in
another post.
What Are The Risks In Doing Blackhat?
There
are definitely risks in doing blackhat but there are risks in doing any
SEO. Once you build a backlink to your site, you are essentially
violating Google's TOS and you could get penalized no matter what. That
is why you need to spread out your risk and build multiple sites and
not just focus on one site. Google does updates all the time and even
the cleanest "white hat" sites even get hit. These risks are there but
that is why SEO is so cost effective. Without the risks, everyone would
be doing it and everyone would be making money.
Dan's Funnel Method Using BlackHat
Like
I mentioned earlier and in other posts, the funnel method is so
effective because it minimizes risks while increasing your traffic.
With Google doing more updates and penalizing more and more sites, by
focusing on one site or a money site is completely gone. I see people
still doing this and eventually they will wake up one day with a site
that is completely wiped out from the search engines.
So
start creating more sites and start spreading your risk across a huge
network of sites. You can do this in the same niche or different
niches. It's really up to you.
