Title: I'm New to This – Need Help Getting Started with Black Hat SEO
Hey guys,
I’ve just recently gotten interested in this whole SEO thing, and I keep seeing the term Black Hat SEO pop up. Honestly, I don’t fully understand what it means or how it works. I’m looking for quick ways to get traffic, and from what I gather, Black Hat might be faster than regular SEO?
Right now, I’m thinking of doing something with affiliate links, but white hat SEO feels super slow. So I want to learn the basics of black hat stuff.
A few beginner questions if you don’t mind:
What exactly is Black Hat SEO in simple terms?
What’s the easiest method to start with?
Are there any tools or software you recommend for beginners?
How do you avoid getting hit with penalties from Google?
I keep hearing about PBNs, cloaking, spam links, etc. — do those still work?
I’ve got a couple of domains and I can write content too, but I have no idea how to structure things or where to begin. Just looking for some guidance from those who’ve been doing this longer.
Thanks in advance for any tips 🙏
