Paul “Black Hat” Short.com

Written November 21st, 2005 by Paul in General, Personal

Ok, this is just a random thought of the top of my head… a “what if” sorta thing.

What If (and NO, this WON’T happen) I were to take the knowledge of SEO, RSS, blogging and internet marketing I’ve learned over the years - combine it with black hat techniques and splog/scraper sites?

I know enough not to make the same stupid sites the pseudo black hat, autogenerated scrapemasters try to pass off as sites. I know enough not to set up a schmorg of blogspot link farms. Imagine the controversy! Paul Short a scraper site black hat dude!

Now back to your regularly scheduled paulshort.com insanity.

    What if… you did it but anonymously?

    Just kidding, eventually someone would find out!

    As Money is a good motivation online, I would build some, anonymously.

    After a bad crash (sorry) as you have and think I would be furious, very furious and would build ton and ton of BH websites very fast… wile my WH sites grow

    While it would be fun to do that initially, I have a strong feeling that such fun would soon be wiped clean by the harsh realities.

    By the way, who someone somewhere is not doing that covertly right now? There is tech to cover tracks meticulously… I am certain there already, no one has a know-all of all ideas. Just when you thought you were the only one who just hit that idea, several have as well. The difference is usually who ACTS on what he knows the first?
