Keyword Stuffing
Posted: Tue Nov 13, 2007 3:35 am
Keyword stacking and keyword stuffing often have the same meaning. Some search engine marketers differentiate the two forms of spam. Keyword stacking often refers to the writing of the gibberish "sentences." Keyword stuffing usually refers to placing the gibberish "sentences" inside graphic images or layers.
For example, many unethical search engine marketers create a small, transparent image called blank.gif, clear.gif, spacer.gif, or shim.gif. Its size is from 1x1 pixels to 25x25 pixels. Then they place a series of keywords in the alternative text of the graphic image. The HTML code for keyword stuffing generally looks like the following:
<img src="images/blank.gif" alt="organic tea organic teas Organic Tea
Organic Teas ORGANIC TEA ORGANIC TEAS">
If such text does not describe the graphic image or the page on which it is placed, the search engines consider the text to be spam.
