Well, we don't get as down and dirty as that - although our previous person, whew! She was just plain evil.
We do things like create doorway pages for certain keywords, pages that really don't have a whole lot except keyword rich material. It's all coherent, and looking at any of these pages would make you think you were just on another page on the site. Of course, I've seen the pages with incoherent babble with the keywords all jumbled in there. To me, that is not playing by the rules, but our method is. Not sure if Google thinks the same as us, but we haven't been banned yet, and we are usually very careful not to rock the boat too much. You do what you have to to get ranked. It's too damn competitive not to. I guess my point is, is if Google is going to continue to rank pages the way that they do (I understand it is an ever-changing algorithm), then the masses are just going to have to do what they have to to get ranked. Hence, "hate the game".
