What Not To Do


The following is a list of things you should NOT do to enhance your position. Search engines can detect these tricks and penalize those who use them.

Tips:

  • Don't be tricky.

      Do not do anything to trick the search engines into listing your site better. If what you are doing is not listed as one of our search engine tips the search engines will likely view it as spam and penalize you.

  • Don't list keywords.

     Do not blatantly list keywords anywhere except in your keywords meta tag. There are very few legitimate reasons that a list of keywords would actually appear on a web page or within the page's HTML code and the search engines know this.

  • Don't hide text.

      Use the same colour text on your page as the page's background colour. This is a well known trick and it is easily detected by search engines.

  • Don't use identical tags.

      Never use multiple instances of the same tag. For example, using more than one title tag.

  • Don't create identical pages.

      For example, do not duplicate a page of your site, give the copies different file names, and submit each one.

  • Don't resubmit within 24 hours.

      Never submit the same page to a search engine more than once within a 24hr period.
