Cloaking

Cloaking is the technique whereby the web site visible to a site visitor is entirely different
from that seen by a search engine spider. The ordinary user may see one set of text and
images but underneath that image, or “cloak”, the site is “stuffed” with keywords. By
examining the cache of a cloaked site on the Google search results, we can see that the
site shows entirely different information to the spider, from that shown to the human eye.
