---- Is this Cloaking?

Hi,,

Cloaking is when you hide text. For example one type of cloaking would be making the text the same color as the background of your website. So only the search engines would see it.

It sounds to me that you are just creating doorway pages. There are good doorway pages and bad ones. Good doorway pages are pages created for the purpose of getting people to your website by just that page, but the page can be found by normal navigation. Like:

wwWebmasterWorldebsite.com/wedgets/blue-wedgets.html

The blue wegets page would be a good doorway page for blue wedgets. If you have a link from your home page to the wedgets page, then a link from there to the blue wedgets page; that would be a good doorway page for blue wedgets.

What your doing is creating a doorway page to try and fool the search engines. I would think of a way to make the link to your page a nessesary one.
