søgeordsspam


Definition from own experience or research:
Overdreven gentagelse af søgeord i websidetekster (brødtekst), meta beskrivelse, webside titel, meta søgeord. Søgeordsspam er et forsøg på hurtigt at opnå en bedre placering på f.eks. Google.

Example sentence(s):
  • Søgeordsspam på en side på nettet opstår, når søgeordstætheden bliver for høj. Har du eksempelvis en tekst på 100 ord omhandlende kakaomælk, og ordet kakaomælk indgår i teksten 10 gange, vil søgeordstætheden for kakaomælk være lig med 10 procent. Undersøgelser viser, at når vi mennesker kommunikerer et specifikt budskab via en tekst, vil søgeordstætheden meget sjældent overstige syv procent. Søgeordstætheden vil desuden falde, jo længere en tekst der er tale om. Søgemaskiner som Bing, Yahoo! og Google prøver at efterligne dette menneskelige træk og benytter derfor avancerede beregninger af søgeordstætheden for siderne på din hjemmeside. - Torbjørn Flensted  

Explanation:
Jeg har ikke oplyst et konkret eksempel på sider med søgeordsspam, da jeg ikke vil hænge et specifikt firma ud. Fænomenet er dog ret almindeligt, især blandt firmaer med ringe kendskab til SEO.
