When a webmaster makes a web page specially for indexing in search engine and the actual service pages to be seen by people are maintained differently, this comes under clocking. So in my opinion it belongs black hat SEO technique.

Cloaking is a new spamming seo technique that some webmasters use to demonstrate the content of their sites to google spider so they could achieve greater rankings for their keywords, and they show something else to the visitors.

Clocking is refer to make a copy of page in our website which is specially targeted for search engine crawlers and spiders. The main page is for users and copy page is for search engine so it is also a black hat seo technique to increase page rank.

A clear title is much more valuable than a wrecked or damaged car title. This scheme occurs when a dealer purchases a high mileage vehicle and subsequently resells it with falsified, reduced odometer reading.

Clocking is considered in one of the black hat tactics. In this techniques web master shows one page to the search engine for a link to achieve better ranking and shows different page to the visitor for the same link. But I think this tactic is no more working as search engine becomes more clever now a days.

Cloaking is a black hat seo technique which showing different pages to users and search engine crawlers
it considered against Google guidelines, which can effect on search engine ranking.
In cloaking, the search engine and the user are literally not on the same page.
there are many ways of cloaking mention below:
(1)hidden text (2)flash based website (3)HTML rich website (4)URL rewriting.
it may possible that if your site caught in cloaking search engine can remove your site from the index.

Cloaking is a search engine optimization (SEO) technique in which the content presented to the search engine spider is different in the user's browser. This is done by delivering content based on IP address or user-agent HTTP header. When a user is identified as a search engine spider, a server-side script cites a different version of the web page, which does not contain the content on that visual material, or it exists but is not searchable. is. The purpose of cloaking is sometimes to cheat the search engine so that they display the page when it is not displayed otherwise (black cap SEO) However, it is a functional to inform the search engines of the content (though old ) Technology, which they will not otherwise find because it is embedded in video or some Adobe Flash component such as non-text containers. As of 2006, there are better ways to reach, including progressive growth, so there is no need for cloaking for regular SEO.

Hitesh Patel

Cloaking is one type of blackhat SEO activity in which spammer describes different information to web spider and the user. For example, If you are searching for some news site but when you open the site it shows different information but web spider can't fetch it as that information. It concerns this information as the news site.
