Being on this forum has opened my eyes to a lot of things which I didn't know initially and I am very glad to be here. Thank you for this lecture.
 
There are various factors involved in search engine ranking and keyword usage is one of them. The recommended keyword usage for web content is 5 percent. If your article is 1000 words, you can repeat your keywords 50 times. Imagine an article where there is 10 percent keywords or 100 keywords in 1000 word articles. Do you think this article will be readable? How does it feel to read an article where certain words are repeatedly used. Search engines like readable content. Their algorithm analyzes articles based on readability.
Ok I understand now and it's true, if I'm reading and article that keeps repeating a particular word or phrase it becomes boring and cumbersome to read
 
hat made of white SEO complies with search engine standards and increases the search engine rating ethically. The tactics are aimed at improving your website's SERP ranking while also providing an outstanding user experience for human website users.

Black hat SEO tactics, on the other hand, do not adhere to the terms of the search engine companies. Instead, they manipulate search engine results to achieve higher rankings.
 
Ok, I understand this is not good if you are staying for a long term. However, what if I am working on a website that is primarily centered around events and will be gone in 6 months?
 
Black hat SEO refers to unethical methods of promoting your website in order for it to rank higher in search engines. White hat SEO is used to refer to normal, honest methods of improving SEO. I think the most common forms of black hat SEO is paying for backlinks to your website and adding irrelevant keywords to pages to try and get it to rank. Some people even try ads as a method of trying to get visitors to go to their page rather than a competitor by bidding on brand terms but that's not so much black hat as it is just sneaky.
 
A blogger or a website owner should try to be aware of black hat SEO, because it can lead to black listing a blog or a website. However, it seems black hat SEO is becoming popular these days.
 
Black hat SEO is actually a very illegal way for way to promote their search keywords so that they can rank on the internet and I wouldn't advise anyone to make use of this strategy to promote their keyword ranking on Google search engines and other search engines in the world wide web.
 
It has some unpopular way to build traffic and good thing is you can manage it for few days so if you have shot term plans for your website than it is good way to get better results otherwise can hurt your long term plans.
