Spamdexing may no longer be a strange word to you. This is because it has become a buzz word in the past specifically in the mid-1990s. Basically, the word is coined from spamming and indexing. It means engine search spamming.

What is spamming a search engine? How is it done? The term refers to the practice of willfully creating web pages, which will be indexed by search engines to boost high SEO rankings. There are lots of techniques to do the spamdexing. Before, it was hard to wrestle with them but at present, it is on the contrary.

Major search engines use a variety of algorithms to rank a particular page however; they are still susceptible to spamdexing and other black SEO techniques. Good thing major search engines have already come up with the 'antidote' to defy the bleak side of SEO. Now, search engines ban the sites of those using the technique. This is the reason why most webmasters are hesitant to use it.
