    Black hat SEO is a practice against search engine guidelines, used to get a site ranking higher in search results. These unethical tactics don't solve for the searcher and often end in a penalty from search engines. Black hat techniques include keyword stuffing, cloaking, and using private link networks.

    Hi Friends,
    It depends on what you call a blackhat SEO, but most blackhat techniques are aimed at driving more traffic, hiding things from search engines, and increasing rankings. If done correctly, blackhat strategy might work, until it gets discovered either by search robots or assessors. Sometimes it will for a couple of days, sometimes for months.

    Yes, in fact, the black hat SEO is unethical. It does a lot of damage to our site permanent or temporary. It depends on google.
