Good and informative article about black hat SEO. As you rightly point out, there is often a fine line between white and black hat techniques with the difference being a question of degree. A rule of thumb I often use is whether what I'm doing is good for the Internet community and my readers or actually hurting both and ruining the Web experience for the sole purpose of building my traffic. If the answer to the second question is yes, it's black hat SEO.
