In earlier times when people came to know about a flaw in Google's algorithm, people started something which Google later called as keyword spamming. Webmasters then came to know that by stuffing too many keywords into their post they could easily come to the topmost posts of Google. But, what about the readers reading the blog. Nobody would love to read a page which had nothing to do with what they were searching for on the web and instead consisted only of keywords stuffed throughout the topic.
After this, Google has today tightened its filters so much that even if you are not included in a intended spam, Google may possibly recognize your site as a spam site. However, there was one more thing which bothered Google. Webmasters had started putting too many keywords in their post and they matched the color of the keywords to the background color of their blog. And this really irritated all the major search engines.
Unfortunately, with the introduction of the spam filters, it is not the spammers who are getting banned by Google, instead it is the newbies who have just started SEO with their blogs who are getting banned. Black hatters do keyword spamming even today. They know that they will get caught some day, but, hey, they build too many mini sites using the spam methods known to them.
