Hi everyone,

I'm just getting started with black hat SEO and wanted to learn from those with real experience. If you were advising a beginner today, which strategy would you suggest learning first, and what common mistakes should they avoid?
 
I will not learn it. It does not has much scope.

I will prefer to learn promoting my websites through options other than Google. You can get more traffic with less efforts that way.
 
if i were starting today id spend more time testing on small projects instead of following every guide you will learn much faster from your own results than from theories.
 
Traffic manipulations like CTR, social boosts, pogo sticking and similar. This tactics are eating easy niches alive
 
Learn technical SEO and safe link building first. Avoid shortcuts, spam, and poor risk management they usually do more harm than good.

I'd say start with testing and learning how different link types behave instead of copying every method you see. Patience and testing make a bigger difference than chasing shortcuts.
 
If I were starting today, I would spend time learning the SEO fundamentals first, including keyword research, technical SEO, on page optimization, and content creation. Many beginners make the mistake of looking for quick wins without understanding the basics, which often results in penalties or rankings that do not last.

Now that i was looking back at the process of creating this website i would try to learn more about the way search engines rate websites nd the relationsships between SEO aspects. Most ppl tend to look for a technique first before they understand the basic concept, wiithout that they can not understand if something works or not. testing is only one side of the process the other is learning y it worked.
 
I’d start by getting a handle on technical SEO, doing keyword research, and understanding basic link building first, before jumping into advanced maneuvers. The main blunders I see are this, chasing shortcuts, leaning on low-quality backlinks, and then overlooking the strength of the content plus the actual search intent, not just the words.
 
I will like to avoid this things shortcuts, spamming because of the harm they will do. Gradual linking building will surely help
 
Start with understanding link building & indexing because that's what actually moves rankings & avoid overdoing spam or footprints since that's what gets sites penalized fast
 
First off, master basic White Hat SEO and technical search fundamentals. You can't break the algorithm rules effectively if you don't even understand how Google indexes and ranks normal sites.
As for mistakes: avoid burning expensive domains on untested automated spam tools right out of the gate. Test your setups on cheap throwaway domains first
 
I'd probably start by learning the fundamentals before chasing advanced tactics understanding how search engines evaluate content links and technical seo makes it much easier to know what to test later the biggest mistake is trying too many things at once instead of testing one change at a time
 
If starting again, I’d focus on understanding SERPs and search intent first, then learn how different link types actually impact rankings. Most beginners rush links without strategy and burn domains too fast.
 
i'd start by learning how search engines evaluate websites before trying any shortcuts. a lot of beginners jump between methods too quickly but understanding testing risk management and patience saves much more time in the long run
 
I'd start by learning the basics of technical SEO and link building before chasing shortcuts.

A lot of beginners make the mistake of using spammy tools or buying low quality links too early, which usually causes more problems than results.
