#2More often that I'd like, I've seen people get too deep into their projects, and forget that things are supposed to be fun.
They start trying to coerce their project into a business, and it not only looks sad, but destroys what they loved in the process.
I certainly understand the temptation, but I hope I maintain the wisdom to know where the line should be.

#5Besides misspelling "its", the lawyer-impersonators at WBD Legal spammed the WBD phrase several times without even saying that it is trademarked.
Good for Bfy, to displace WBD trolls, unless they set up a fake controversially to make them selves look put upon (cynical because Fake Controversies are a classic marketing technique, older than Fake Holiday and Infographic)

It's quaint how you ascribe innocent motivations in the first place, as though this wasn't a commercial project from the start.

Infographics are a classic SEO black hat scam, where an infographic with random factoids and idiot-enticing charts/graphics is circulated to generate link juice for a site with an unrelated business purpose.
The poster is just saying that Holidays are the new black hat marketing technique.

I don't think that creating content people want to consume in an effort to get them to link to your site qualifies as black hat SEO.
