Black Hat. Anything underhand, dishonest or unethical. The crucial test, perhaps is: if the search engines knew how you were trying to improve your serps, they would ban or penalise you.
White Hat. All SEO that is not Black Hat. Working ethically in such a way that no reasonable person would criticise you.

Black Hat is generally trying to dominate serps to get visitors to your site generate income.
Reverse SEO is generally trying to dominate serps so that adverse comments about your business get pushed off the top pages of serps.

Black hat SEO can get you blacklisted by google if they find you are using these techniques
White hat SEO is 'approved' by google. Meaning they dont mind you doing it because it is a legitimate way of getting results.

Blackhat techniques is a shortcut, in seo black hat techniques are only good for bringing in some cash in the short term, I wouldn't consider them if you are serious about generating traffic in the long term.

black hat SEO are the techniques which will bring your website on top more quickly rather than white hat SEO. but it will also make your website banned from search engine before you know it. white hat SEO are the techniques proved by search engines so that you will not get banned.

in a way, yes. giving the possibility of devaluing the weight of certain links Google has implemented a way to decrease the effectiveness of some methods of spam (for example in blog comments).

White hat is no tricks, just solid HTML, CSS, JS, SQL. Black hat is simply manipulating the search engine results pages using a number of methods including:
- hidden text and hidden links;
- cloaking - described above as showing one page version to engines and another version to real users;
- taking part in link schemes, especially automated;
- using doorway pages, i.e. pages built only to set up a cookie on user's computer

Black hat SEO is the unapproved, or unethical, process of getting your website ranked. This can involve spamming and keyword stuffing. This kind of practice can eventually get your site banned in the search engines by Google. Make sure your SEO provider is only using white hat SEO methods.

Whitehat and blackhat SEO are two different views of how to do search engine optimization.
Whitehats are those website designers that "play nice" and try to follow all of the search engine guidelines to optimize their site.
Blackhats are where website designers use backdoors, cloaking, and other tricks to optimize sites.

BlackHat SEO techniques are the ones which are not acceptable by Search Engines.
They are considered unethica, lsly, underhand, sneaky and even dishonest.
You will be penalized if the search engines find out the you are using black hat techniques.
whitehat SEO is generally accepted by search engines. complete opposite of a blackhat SEO

Black hat SEO deals with strategies and techniques that would aim to manipulate the search engine rankings, that is trying to deceive the search engines, once caught the search engines will suspend or ban your website from ranking.
White Hat SEO deals with the use of SEO strategies that are in accordance to the "rules" of the search engines, aim is to really optimize the website and not to deceive search engines just to increase rankings.

Black Hat is generally trying to dominate serps to get visitors to your site generate income.
Reverse SEO is generally trying to dominate serps so that adverse comments about your business get pushed off the top pages of serps.
Black Hat and reverse Seo are not one in the Same. Reverse SEO is similar or the same as online reputation management whereby you have to bury the negativity your competitors or customers put on the net about your business.

Black hat, is the use of other special means to cater to the search engine rules, achieve rapid increase PageRank approach. Usually in a short time and can greatly improve the ranking. But not long way.
White hat, is the normal means, improve site quality, increase the number of site outside the chain of a series of normal means, time is relatively slow, but they have high quality .

I think Black Hat SEO aims to improve the search engine visibility of a site by any means necesary, gaming the system in a way "not appreciated " by google and other search engines - WHite hat is trying to achieve better visibility through a more long term approach by both improving the quality of the iste over all as well as specifically focusing on some techniques that work on things we know search engines factor in ther calculations, but the difference is that simply by influencing those factors, not gaming or deceiving the search engines.
