cbolson Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 What you are suggesting is known as blackhat SEO - ie you are trying to trick the search engines into thinking that your page has more content than it really has. A few years ago this was a well known trick (along with white text on white background, off-page margins, tiny font etc) but the search engines soon worked it out. At least as far as Google is concerned, not only does it see what you have done but it reflects negativley on your index position - ie Google (and probably most other search engines) frown upon this sort of method. If you want the search engines to pick up on your keywords, you need to include them properly in the content.

Rommeo Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I really do not like it when someone does it.. Also I think that does not work, when I get the wrong result from a webpage I dont visit it again. SEO is for more visitors, not less.

Adam Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 I don't think he was intently trying to stuff in random keywords to get more visitors, just trying to add in some extra content without realizing it's a bad technique to try and use.
