SEO Tactics that Can Put You on Fire and Should be Avoided at All Cost

[ArthurCane]

Link Farming - linking to websites that are not with the same niche as yours to take advantage of site link juice. This is one of the most hated spamdexing method by Google, Yahoo and Bing.

Hidden Texts - hiding texts from the ones that can be read by the human readers. These are to trick bots and crawlers to increase the relevancy of a web page which is a huge factor in ranking a website.

Keyword Stuffing - loading your website with more keywords than necessary which can make your web content rubbish

Paid Links - buying of links from high PR websites just to increase your popularity and authority online. This may seem beneficial but take note that many of these links are not relevant to your website which is clearly what Google terms as spamming.
