How can a website compete for high rankings using only white hat techniques in industries that are dominated by spammers if Google takes months to react to spam reports and by that time new black hat sites are ranking?
Interesting story, but how about upcomming companies or services?
A competitor using blck hat techniques will earn money from the beginning and the white hat maybe later (if he has enough money to exists after month of figthing the others)
Sure you need to the white hat techniques, but to jumpstart you need other plans than hoping that only organic traffic will do the job ;)
where can I find white hat techniques because I just got a job at goodoletoms and I need help making them show up more on google btw I have no idea what I'm doing

Perfect subtitles again in 1:03:
Original: the other thing to bear in mind is that Google is always looking at how to stop the white hat tricks
Subtitles: the other thing to bear in mind is THE DEVIL is always looking at how to stop the white hat tricks
So Google = Devil?
@rahulxxx2000 ever considered following matt on twitter or subscribing to his blog? every once in a while matt posts a link to google moderator for new questions
I disagree with the assertion that blackhat sites are built to be temporary - my serps are dominated by spammers who have been around for years.
I also was an authority ste in a long-tail space before going commercial, but got totally snuffed by MayDay.
This is great video...I do have clients in crazy industries like payday loan industry where there is a lot of black hat and gray hat going on and it is very hard to compete with them..building authority is important and to hear it from Matt is even more important.
In my podcast we often talk about our job as SEO'ers is to provide a good experience to the google user. If a quality website is using black hat techniques will you always penalize or ban them?
Thank you very much for taking the time to reply our question! It completely makes sense, unfortunately the time needed to become an authority site in highly competitive keywords is frustrating and SEO/Google automatically becomes a secondary marketing strategy. Hopefully through time Google will become even better and faster at noticing black hat sites and taking them out.
