These methods violate search engine guidelines and can cause significant long-term damage to websites.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"787\" data-end=\"819\"><\/h3>\n<h2 data-start=\"787\" data-end=\"819\"><strong data-start=\"791\" data-end=\"819\">Black Hat SEO Techniques<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"821\" data-end=\"846\"><strong data-start=\"826\" data-end=\"846\">Keyword Stuffing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"847\" data-end=\"1059\">Keyword stuffing is the excessive use of keywords within a webpage\u2019s content in an attempt to boost search engine rankings.
