Doorway pages are some special pages programmed or customized to a few particular keywords or phrases. These are visible to specific search engines and their spiders only to trick the search engines into giving high ranking to these sites. These are not good to use as these are specifically targeted to the spiders of search engines to improve the ranking. These are also considered in black hat SEO efforts so these should not be used.
