1. Along with virtues, SEO has its own vices.
2. Above we discussed all the way to flatter Search Engines to get ourselves listed at the top of the search results.
3. Here are some precautions to take into account before annoying Search Engines;

• Shallow Content,

Google with its Panda Update introduced in 2011, targets sites with poor or shallow content.
With a time to time update, the sites previously warned have a chance to escape the penalty by altering their content.

• Keyword Stuffing,

One of the oldest spam tactics used till date.
When we say to use a particular keyword often that does not mean to use it irrelevantly and spam your own website with those keywords.
Stuffing of keywords may lead to penalties by Search Engines.

• Link Spam,

Building links is important but also in an authentic way.
Extending your arms on any irrelevant high quality sites to gain higher rankings will mark your foolishness.
Google dislikes links spamming and will penalize you for such actions.
 
Therefore, always into account the dark side of the SEO to save yourself from any spams or penalties by Search Engines.
