Search engine optimization can be done in many ways, but some of these are considered unethical. If used, this may result in a ban on your website or can even invite several other penalties from the search engine authorities. More than helping you to raise the rank for your website in search engines, some such strategies can spell plain disaster instead. So it is important to know what to avoid while optimizing your website for search engine rankings.

Text in graphics

Text inside images and graphics cannot be tracked by search engines. So even if you use significant keywords and relevant texts within the graphics, it fails to contribute to search engine positioning in any way. Information, words and texts should be placed in a way such that the search engines can easily identify them and thereby give your website a better rank for those search results. More the text in graphics in a webpage, lesser its chances of being noticed and getting good rank in search engines. Failing to identify graphic texts, the search engines often deduce these as blank web-pages. Homepages are classic examples of this, they being graphic intensive and incorporating texts in images.

Moving a page having a PR

Moving a webpage means making it lose its Page Rank (PR) until Google indexes it next. So if you are to shift the page, redirect its original URL to the new page, mentioning whether the translocation is temporary or for good.

Dead ends

Every webpage must have a link exit, a way out of that page. No webpage should be a closed road.

Artificially increase a page’s keyword density

Stuffing a webpage with unnecessary words in order to heighten its keyword density is a major unethical attempt, which leads to severe penalizations at times. When ALT tags are stuffed with keywords, users do not get to view it and that is precisely what is held as a wrong strategy towards search engine optimization. So fend it off.

Using hidden text or links

Hiding texts and links from the users’ view is yet another significant red-flag point for search engine optimizers. Only those texts and links that are clearly viewable should be used.

Links from link farms and non-relevant sites

When you are using other related links in your webpage, it is best to ensure that they are of relevant sites and not of FFA sites or link farms. One simple way is to use links from pages that do not have many other links , from websites having the same theme and content as yours or from those that complement yours.

Unnatural links

Natural links always have an edge over unnatural links when it comes to positions in search engines, because the latter prefer linking to be ‘natural’—to appear spontaneous, as if they are natural results of a business deal. To do away with unnatural linking, avoid too many links at a time, avoid links all coming from link pages, avoid all reciprocal links and all links having a high PR 95 or above). This way you can save throwing an impression that you bought the links .

Using the same text in all incoming links

If every website that links back to you bears the same text on the link description, it is considered unnatural. More natural is to allow some percent of the site’s name in the text and the rest a wide range of description. This link text description plays a crucial role in determining the site/page rank. So it is surely advisable to carry this in mind while you fix your preferred link text description in your website.

Without a domain name, websites are specified by an IP address. What is an IP address? It is an identifier that is used by computers or humans to determine the location of a server or website. However, for humans, an IP address, (which is expressed in a numerical format), can be difficult to remember. This is why Domain names were invented. With a domain name, a human can locate a website through more user-friendly words or phrases. And although numbers can be a part of a domain name, they usually do not make up all of it, like what is seen with an IP address.

In terms of format, Domain names have several parts. The first part is known as the URL, (which stands for Uniform Resource Locator). The URL tells the browser what the domain name is going to point to. This will usually be ‘http’, which means the browser can expect to locate a hypertext document. In layman’s terms this means webpage. In the rare cases the URL is not ‘http’ it may be ‘ftp’, which means file transfer protocol. A webmaster would opt to use ftp if they would like visitors to download files from their server.

The second part of the domain name will be "www," which stands for "World Wide Web." This phrase lets computers and humans know the site the domain name is pointing to is indeed from the Internet. It is followed by the actual domain name, which can be a combination of letters, numbers or phrases. A good domain name will be short, memorable and most importantly, search-engine friendly. In fact, good webmasters tend to concentrate more on a domain name’s effectiveness with SEO, (or Search Engine Optimization), than they do its creativity. To do this they make sure to choose a domain name that has a widely searched keyword.

The final portion of the domain name has what is known as

Bandwidth, Bandwidth is used to describe the amount of data that can be transferred to or from the website or server, measured in bytes transferred over a prescribed period of time.

Be careful when someone claims they provide unlimited bandwidth or monthly transfer. Anyone claiming "Unlimited Bandwidth" is simply lying. There’s no such thing as "Unlimited Bandwidth".

I’ve never seen any broadband company offering an internet connection as "Unlimited Megabytes per Second." So, how could a web hosting company, which normally doesn’t even own its own access lines, claims to customers that it will give them "Unlimited Bandwidth"?

Most of the time, high bandwidth sites on these "Unlimited" plans will be disconnected, and no refund given. Normally, the web hosting company will say that the site violated its Acceptable Use Policy or Terms of Service.

Whenever you visit a site promoting "Unlimited Bandwidth" as one of the account features, be sure to visit the Acceptable Use Policy, or the Terms of Service. Read the fine text about the so-called "Unlimited" disclaimer.

When you first look for web hosting services (those who state clearly bandwidth offered), you have to make your best estimation and watch your usage carefully in the first few months. Take these factors into consideration while estimating.
