Have you ever accidentally used Black Hat SEO?

[Shortie]

If you are familiar with SEO, you will know that there is white hat SEO and also black hat SEO. White hat SEO is one that should be used and that will help your SEO in a good way but there is also black hat SEO that is very much frowned upon by search engines and should be avoided.

Some people may use black-hat SEO without even realizing it and it be unintentional if they do not realize otherwise.

Have you ever accidentally used black-hat SEO?

I've never accidentally done this. SEO is still a topic that's relatively new for me, but looking at a list of common Black Hat SEO techniques I've thankfully have never done any of them. If you're accidentally using any of the techniques, you really should remove them from your site since it'll only hurt it in the long run.

I used blackhat plenty in the past. Many people did, lol. I used it well for the most part and never really got "busted" for it.

Never used xrumor or any spammy thing, though.

I just quickly made sure I started learning SEO and doing things right before it was too late.

Nowadays, I try to do everything by the book.
