Dear Freelancers,
I've never had any particular interest in SEO, and especially nothing Black Hat. However, I found an interesting article about the subject and I thought I'd share it with you.
You can find it here: What Is Black Hat SEO?
Below you'll find a list of things that are considered to be black hat.
Content Automation
Doorway Pages
Hidden Text or Links
Keyword Stuffing
Reporting a Competitor (or Negative SEO)
Sneaky Redirects
Cloaking
Link Schemes
Guest Posting Networks
Link Manipulation (including buying links)
Article Spinning
Link Farms, Link Wheels or Link Networks
Rich Snippet Markup Spam
Automated Queries to Google
Creating pages, subdomains, or domains with duplicate content
Pages with malicious behavior, such as phishing, viruses, trojans, and other malware

I use Pretty Link because:
Then I use bitly links as a link shortener, not as a cloaker. This is especially useful for Twitter that has a limit!
However I think what they are referring to as cloaking is not the same as what I do, I would think a lot of people cloak their links for other reasons like spamming. Hi Andre I'm not so sure about cloaking, I use Pretty Link and very often I also use bitly too but I don't think I use that in a black hat way. I use Pretty Link because: [list][*]It makes my links prettier[/*][*]It makes my links easier to remember - for me and for others[/*][*]I can track clicks on my affiliate links which means I can test which links work better by setting up more than one pretty link for an affiliate url or other url[/*][/list] Then I use bitly links as a link shortener, not as a cloaker.
