The is a sign in France 'TRANSIT INTERDIT' which means that while you driving a truck across the country to a neighboring country you can not go this way, it also means that there is another way leading to the same point on the road. In the Internet world of web developers, there is a similar way to with some restrictions. What kind of restrictions are we talking about?
In the Search Engine Optimization world there is some terms :
- white hat
- gray hat
- black hat
Let say that 'Transit Interdit' means that you can not use the 'black hat' technique, I mean you can do it and the results in a short time will look good but after some time the will be the ticket to pay. So it means that in the long-term goal there is no place for the black hat technique. Before I switch my job from the truck driver into junior web dev I need to be aware that some market players like in the container trucking sector using 'black hat' but they use colors like orange for the trucks.
