			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Making money from Myspace is quite easy. It used to be easier but they have cracked down on spam.</p>
<p>If you want to make sure they (probably) don&#8217;t remove your profile, make it look as crap as you can. Search for myspace layouts, put everything, glitter graphics, songs, the works. Upload a picture of an attractive girl, get a few friends, get some comments etc.</p>
<p>Now you have a few methods to make some money:</p>
<ul>
<li>Use the groups thing to make a group in your niche. Collect people who have a similar interest to what you are promoting/selling into a group. Use their search function to find people. Only bother adding people who are actually interested or at least your target market in/for your product.</li>
<li>Get lots and lots of friends. Use auto adders (Google for them, most you have to pay for). Don&#8217;t do too many at once. If I were you, I would set up 5-10 accounts now, occasionally login add 5-10 people. After a couple of months after it looks like you&#8217;re a regular user (not a spammer) then start mass adding. Don&#8217;t do too many, they do remove profiles that spam friend requests. Once you have all these friends, then send bullitens or send messages/comments saying something such as &#8220;Hey, talk to me on here&#8221;, here being a webcam site such as <a href="http://PussyCash.com/wmaster.asp?WID=422484258&#038;promocode=BCODET000010D_00000">IMLive</a> (affiliated link, through their company Pussy Cash. You can even get around $2 per free sign up there &#8211; it is easy money) etc.</li>
<li>Leave lots of comments with affiliated links. Ringtones etc. Make it seem you are not a spammer.</li>
</ul>
<p>A good way to get people who are interested in your product, is to do a google search like site:myspace.com &#8220;your keyword&#8221;</p>
<p>You can also get a load of backlinks, by spamming links on comments.</p>
<p>Let me know in the comments for your thoughts etc on spamming myspace.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This site doesn&#8217;t really cover much black hat seo or methods used by spammers, but there is no point in trying to ignore it. Black hat seo can be very helpful. So you might be interested in some black hat seo tactics some people use.</p>
<p><span id="more-43"></span></p>
<ul>
<li><em>Underlining words in forum posts, then making links</em>. EG they make a whole post underlined, and add in links, so you can&#8217;t see that they are links (unless your mouse goes over one of the anchored words), and the post won&#8217;t get deleted as the admins will just think it is a legitimate post with some fancy formatting</li>
<li><em>Hacking sites and redirecting them</em> &#8211; this can take the form of hacking the htaccess to make all pages go to the spammer&#8217;s website, or just editing some pages (javascript redirects, meta redirects or script redirects (such as php&#8217;s header() function))</li>
<li>Of course the <em>javascript redirects</em>. Search engines ignore javascript (generally) so the seo&#8217;er will make a keyword rich page/site that gets to the top of search engines and either redirects (via javascript) it to a business page (where they can&#8217;t put keywords on for whatever reason) or some affiliate link</li>
<li><em>Referral specific redirects</em> &#8211; similar to above, but only if the referer is a search engine. This will normally mean that (well they hope, anyway) search engine crawlers don&#8217;t notice the redirect. This can be done using htaccess.</li>
<li><em>Referrer spam </em>- yup more to do with the referrer. This time they hope that the website somewhere either shows its statistics or shows the referers with most hits in. Then of course they get their precious link to their site.</li>
<li>Trackback spam &#8211; blogging software often has some form of trackback or pingback. Some software will imitate trackbacks so that blog posts have a &#8220;trackback link&#8221; at the bottom of the pages. This isn&#8217;t so common now thanks to the rel=nofollow.</li>
<li><em>Auto generated content</em> &#8211; Some people use scripts to make hundreds of pages (all with links to whatever they are trying to promote) of garbage. But its garbage that might get through search engines filters to make sure only &#8220;real&#8221; pages get indexed and also might show up in some searches for a bit off topic searches</li>
<li><em>Mirroring Sites </em>- some people will mirror sites with a lot of content, on a different domain, hoping the search engines will put them higher than the real site. They will often use lots of on site optimisation such as putting keywords in the url, bold keywords for the article etc</li>
<li><em>Lots of subdomains all pointing to one site </em>- It isn&#8217;t used quite so much any more but is still used. Search engines see these as spam most times.</li>
<li><em>XSS </em>- Cross Site Scripting &#8211; using exploits in high pr/high traffic sites to add a link to the spammers site. For example, some site searches will display &#8220;No Results found for [query]&#8220;. So if you searched for the html code for a link to your site, you would get a link back to your site. Geddit? And then they just add a link to that search query (assuming it uses a &#8220;get&#8221; method) to get it indexed by the search engines.</li>
</ul>
<p>There are many, <strong>many</strong> more methods but they are just a few from the top of my head.</p>
