QuadsZilla just made an interesting post on http://seoblackhat.com titled: There’s no Such Thing as Advanced White Hat SEO he makes some interesting points about how so called advanced white hat techniques are basically bordering on grey/black hat. Refferring to Lisa Barone’s experience at SMX:
Here are some of the “advanced search engine optimization” techniques I picked up during my time in Seattle.
- There are lots of old sites lying around on the Interwebz with great link juice. Buy them and capitalize on that. But do it carefully or Google will pick up on it and reset the score.
- Conditional redirects are teh awesome.
- Search marketers don’t need ethics. They’re marketers. Check the ethics at the door.
- You can never have too many .edu links.
- I need to grow some balls, stop fearing Matt Cutts and start buying links.
Where were the white hat advanced search engine optimization techniques in Seattle?
Because black hat seo is the only place where there is any development. White hat can work, but it’s exactly the same stuff that worked 6 years ago. Why do you need to go to a conference to get 6 year old information?
I think they’re mostly talking aout on-site optimisation rather than advanced methods for acquiring links etc, however I thought it was interesting. The whole post is here.
