Obfuscation

Obfuscation and Cloaking

Obfuscation is the process of hiding SEO techniques so that human users will not be able to find them. This is only fully possible by cloaking, which is contrary to search engine terms and conditions.

The reasons people might want to obfuscate is to protect the techniques that have caused them to rank well in the first place. Unfortunately, the process of obfuscation is very likely to result in long term penalties in search indices, which will outweigh the risk of competitors copying your techniques.
