This blog is intended to educate those interested in spamming and those wanting to prevent spam on their blogs and in emails. Nothing of importance will be posted publicly. Our private forum is an invite only one. To gain access email sasha@smartspammers.com with why you should get in. Thanks to MK for giving us this site and facilities to start this small organization.

Spam is considered the weakest technique in SEO, it’s also believed that it gets you in trouble most frequently, unless done right and if done right it’s no longer called Spam though, it becomes what’s uncommonly known as SS - Smart Spam.

This is spam that Google can in NO WAY hurt you for using. Lots of ways to spam forums, blogs, site profiles, emails and so forth without being looked don upon, actually you’ll get nice traffic and your spammed links will remain where they are.

A quick example of a SS technique in action and I shall say no more as this will be discussed in the private seo forums later on.
Profile picture comments.

The comment spam is well-known to any blogger. Without protection, the blog is doomed, but really, spamming via comments, specially to blogs that require manual comment moderation can be a pain, so how to get around this little dilemma? Trackback Spam.

What Are Trackbacks?

A trackback is one of three types of linkbacks, methods for Web authors to request notification when somebody links to one of their documents. This enables authors to keep track of who is linking, and so referring, to their articles. Some weblog software programs, such as Wordpress, Movable Type, Typo and Community Server, support automatic pingbacks where all the links in a published article can be pinged when the article is published. The term is used colloquially for any kind of linkback

Some say it’s a myth, others say an outdated method, we say it’s an opportunity to bring sexy back. That’s right, what has long been over used can always be reused, with a little tweaking here and there.
This is a short but to the point post about how to get hundreds if not thousands of backlinks through way of trackbacks.

You see, trackbacks should appear automatically, without manual intervention…which means without any control, due to the nature of the trackbacks, there is no easy solution for bloggers to prevent trackback spam, it’s an absolute bitch that gets them every time, so to all of you spammers shoving thousands of comments in their face a day, change your tactic while you still can, below is an example of trackback spam (note, for this to work best, after we have listed all confirmed trackbacks we will simply remove the links from the following paragraph! an advanced apology to the bloggers we’re about to ping here, this is for the sake of educating people…yeah…and Quad, much respect goes out to you);

So, ad agencies are designing products now, and this trend has every indication of expanding for the foreseeable future. It’s a pretty logical next step in the quest for flexibility and virtuality, and, it could be argued, is an indication of a maturing product and media market. As Walker is fond of pointing out, we are first world consumers, and most of our fundamental needs have been pretty well taken care of for the past 50 years or more. In his book Buying In, he offers the recent example of a Consumer Reports examination of kitchen ranges, in which every one of the 60-odd units examined scored “good” or “excellent” in performance and quality. There are plenty of markets like that, so it’s easy to argue that all that’s left are adjustments of minutia to affect the consumer’s perception of the product; brand identities excel at maximizing that sort of thing.

Now food for thought, aim at slamming older posts with pr on the blog post pages, also say you code a little trackback link data miner, a little crawler that finds and lists trackback urls, you’ll have thousands, simply listing chunks from time to time will do wonders for your backlink building. Go have fun and remember, think outside the box and rewind to check out some of the older spam techniques. Next we plan on talking you through Link Bait and techniques/methods and tricks to go along with that not to mention a note on affiliate marketing and how to make more off of your affiliate links by being…smart?!

We left Quad’s trackback link because he requires them to be moderated, also to provide and example to those that don’t know what a trackback is.

For a long time Forums and Blogs have managed censor our bad words by adding them to the word filter addons or plugins, they have even come to use this method to fight Spam by censoring out words or a combination of words. Some of the common censored words are www and .com even http:// which when censored shows up as **** and breaks the link, so spammers really don’t get the link back love they so rightfully deserve. Others before us have found a way around this but we want to go ahead and share it with all of you publicly, a simple solution to an annoying problem.

Also let it be known that this method (which is basically using ASCII characters) may be used in mass spam attacks be it through forum spamming software or even a hand coded comment bot which you feed a blog url list to spam. The comments in both instances can follow the example below and overcome and word censor triggers said forum or blog might have in place.

So it’s rather simple, no forum or blog out there expects this so it will pretty much always work, check it out a = & # 9 7 ; without spaces then there’s b = & # 9 8 ; again without spaces and if you did not get that then c = & # 9 9 ; again, without spaces and so on. Click on the small image in this post for the full letter/number/character chart.

Another quick tip for those manually spamming forums be it with links, try and stile your links to go with the rest of the text, that way you’re more likely to >> pass under the radar, make sure you don’t add it at the top of the post because when moderators check the most recent posts, they will spot a link if it’s closer to the top 4 or 6 lines, anything less and it wont show as code in the most recent post feature on forums so it will depend on them hovering over that anchor text by mistake to find out, or they might if they quote you but it’s always worth a shot, be smart people, if doing something will increase the chance of a link remaining rather then getting deleted, do it. As an example check out the words above in this paragraph pass under the radar, rather than having it look like this pass under the radar it looks like normal text yet remains a link.

That’s it for now, more to come on this topic, more advanced tricks on how to mass register on forums without being noticed, and mass spam using all those accounts at the same time, that’s right, different posts for 100’s of different accounts at the same instant thought a single forum. Forum owners, hate us yet? We’re sure you don’t, you have a head start in censoring ASCII characters and adding them to your word filters, but word to the wise, don’t…you’ll mess up so much in doing so.

Alarms go off in your everyday web surfers head when they read the word Spam. To most people, the first thing they think about when they see the word spam these days is either Email Spam, or Blog Comment Spam. It’s true, these seem to be the two most heavily spammed mediums online today, but is that really the case? We could answer this with a little more detail into what exactly is being spammed the most, and what Google really does not know about it, but we wont, not just yet. Keep the following in mind when you’re spamming;

Link stuffing
Networked blogs
Invisible text
Domain spam
Javascript redirects
Forums
Link farms

So the above are only a sprinkle of how spammers go about making a living, and for the most part, they don’t work, not in the traditional sense. Google is ever evolving and adapting to the change in techniques of Spammers. Once we were truly ahead, Google and other major search engines has managed to slightly catch up, and now they’re not just targeting spammers, but webmasters in general. You either play by their book when it comes to marketing your site, or you don’t play at all.

Every now and again we at SmartSpammers will teach you a new effective technique to get your site / product out there and ranking! No catch, we don’t charge anything, we’re absolutely free. There is a Private section to the site but even that is free, it’s by way of invite only and you’ll learn more about that some other day.

So if you want to learn about Non-Robot JavaScript Detectable Redirects that work and do much more than simply redirect, parasite hosting (parasite hosting refers to a spammer’s creation of a keyword targeted page on a strong, legitimate domain. The idea here is that if they can control that page’s content, they can rank for searches and re-direct the traffic to whatever site/page they choose), things like bypassing the links in comment filter on blogs so you can slip links into your comments on high pr blogs, piggybacking off authority sites to push your affiliate links up in the serps for your choice of keywords and so on. We could go on forever here but we wont.

So, Spam, that’s what this is all about, and SEO? BlackHat SEO? Is that related to Spam, of course it is and we’ll skate in that ring soon enough. But for now, we’ll leave you with this first post, just to get us motivated enough to blog tomorrow,
