No Black Hat SEO, Austin!
SEO Black Hat Slippery Slope
Austin, you can think of yourself as a white hat kind of an SEO guy who occasionally dips into black hat, but it’s a slippery business.
Scareware is a new blackhat trick that’s so easily accomplished that it might be tempting to someone already in the black hat neighborhood of SEO, Austin.
Black Hat guys use fairly simple redirect codes to make it appear to the user that he’s on the road to a reliable site, which shows up high in the rankings because it’s well-known. Then the user is quickly redirected to the black hat site, which gains in hits and clicks and malicious meanness from this evil technique of SEO, Austin.
So, No Black Hat SEO, Austin
It’s just so easy to slide into that sort of thing; when you never see your victims, it’s easy to forget they’re there – but not for the FTC, apparently, which has filed suit against these shenanigans of SEO, Austin, and it could happen to anyone, even you. These black hat guys are finding that life’s not as much fun when your assets are frozen.

Part IV: Yet Another Search Engine Optimization Metaphor
Part IV: Another Search engine optimization Metaphor
Dear Austin – Thank you for asking advice from LAL – here’s Part IV of my advice: No Black Hat Techniques
Black Hat techniques have long been popular in love – essentially, it’s trickery. The analogy is actually pretty stable – search engine optimization, Austin, is a lot like seduction – it serves a valuable goal when honestly pursued, but nobody likes being tricked, either in internet searching or in love.
Specific Search Engine Optimization Black Hat Analogies:
One search engine optimization Black Hat technique is “stuffing” a site with keywords that might not even have relevance to the topic. In love, this is roughly equal to saying a million fake “I love yous.” Or possibly, pretending to be interested in kittens, or soap operas, to get the girl.
Try again, an improper search engine optimization, Austin, might entail zillions of worthless backlinks to a site. The Love equivalent to this would be getting all your fraternity buddies to happen to drop by to tell the girl that you’re shy and never, ever date. That’s not search engine optimization, Austin, that’s tricking the “user” whether it’s the girl or the web visitor.
Black hat search engine optimization, Austin, relies on the notion of striking fast and moving on, anticipating that the sites they are promoting may be shut down in the near term. A romantic cad likewise has no honorable intentions of staying around for long.
In classic romance terms, the guy who uses black hat search engine optimization, Austin, is the guy at the end of the story who watches sadly as the great girl rides off into the sunset with the white hat guy.

Part II - Search Engine Optimization, Austin
Part III: Another Search engine optimization Metaphor
Dear Austin – Thank you for asking advice from LAL – here’s Part III of my advice:
Okay, we’re still thinking of ourselves as a website that needs search engine optimization, Austin. Now we’re going to focus on the putting ourselves out there part of the metaphor – social networking.
Social networking in love vs. Social networking in Search Engine Optimization, Austin:
In love, social networking means networking with people with similar interests; in search engine optimization, Austin, social networking means networking your site to potential visitors with similar interests.
If you’re working to optimize for teens, you’re lucky; Facebook and Myspace have zillions of users, mostly teens; creating a page on those sites will put your site out there in a big way.
Other social networking sites, such as delicious, StumbleUpon, Digg, YouTube, offer plenteous opportunities for search engine optimization, Austin.
YouTube is an amazing tool for search engine optimization; searches will almost always take a minute to watch a video; users can exchange comments on videos, post video responses, and in general create the kind of community that spreads in a viral way when working towards search engine optimization, Austin. Nowadays, with webcams, videos can be created pretty quickly, and if you have something worthwhile to say, you’ll get an audience.
To summarize, when working towards search engine optimization, Austin, you need to clean up shop, be yourself, and get out there and mingle. Everything your mom always said, in fact.

Part II: Another Search engine optimization Metaphor
Dear Austin – Thank you for asking advice from LAL – here’s Part II of my advice:
Okay, we’re still thinking of ourselves as a website that needs search engine optimization, Austin. Now we’re going to focus on the searching part of the metaphor.
Metaphorical language AND search engine optimization, Austin:
If a website manages to achieve really high search engine optimization, Austin, it means true love for searchers; they find exactly what they’re looking for. But, even if the site gets millions of hits but no purchasers, the whole search engine optimization process has failed.
If you’ll follow: search engine optimization, Austin, in the love arena, will only be successful if your “search tags” reflect who you really are.
I’ll use an example geared toward girls – countless teen girls decide to find love by attracting the lowest common denominator: by bleaching their hair, going bulimic, and wearing tacky, revealing clothes.
This search engine optimization technique, Austin, produces attention for the girl, but not attention from guys optimized to who she really is.
And the same will prove true for you – metaphorically, in love, search engine optimization, Austin, requires both soul-searching and honesty in what you put out there for searchers to find.
