What are some SEO strategies?
If you have heard the term “Black Hat SEO” then you know the term is applied negatively to websites that use methods of optimizing their website that are frowned on by search engines. In fact, these search engines will ban these sites from their rankings when they are discovered (and they almost always are).
There is another term used for Search Engine Optimization (SEO) referred to as “White Hat”,
and just like the movie westerns of yesteryear you get the picture that there is a struggle between good and bad between these optimization approaches. for more detials:-www.greatseosecrets.com.Newsweek reported in a December 19th, 2005 article, “[Search engines] are increasingly tolerant of ethical or “white hat” [SEOs], who primarily help their clients knock down the virtual walls that prevent search engines from fully indexing their site.”

They have every right to do so, but there comes a point when numbers are incorrectly manipulated to reduce the individual tax burden. Chances are pretty good that sometime in the future this individual is going to get caught.
“White Hat” SEO practitioners understand there is acceptable rules and they will frame their strategies within those rules because to ‘get caught’ using unethical SEO practices could mean saying goodbye to your ability to let the most people know about your existence on the web.
