Search Engine Optimization also known as SEO, is one of the most favored marketing techniques in the world and today a very large number of companies are going for Search Engine Optimization in order to boost sales and also for increased visibility in search engine results. The basic idea of Search Engine Optimization is to modify the content and the coding of a website in such a way that the search engine gives it prominence and the web page figures prominently on the search engine results. There are a number of methods which are used for Search Engine Optimization. Over a period of time a number of dishonest and illegitimate methods have also evolved. Such unlawful methods are termed as Black Hat methods.

Black Hat Search Engine Optimization techniques basically aim to improve page rankings and work towards making the page figure prominently on search engine results. However the means that are used to improve the rankings of the page are quite unscrupulous and thus search engines have strict security procedures and each Search Engine Optimization strategy is carefully observed by the search engine. Black Hat techniques are quite innovative and one of the most innovative techniques is the use of hidden text which is very hard to decipher to the human eye but is picked up by search engines. This text is hidden in the background or positioned in such a way that it is quite impossible to pick out.

Another favored Black Hat SEO technique is called as Cloaking. Cloaking is basically the diversion of a web page. When a user clicks on a particular web page he is directed to a completely different web page by the use of coding and cross linking.
