    How these are defined and does it play any positive role in SEO?

    Doorway pages is a way of fooling the search engines in which you strongly optimize a page for targeted keywords (long tail, short tail, LSI).
    These pages appear in search results ad when user clicks on it, they will redirect you to actual page of the website.

    This is one form technique of backhat SEO.

    What I know about doorway pages is that they are used in spamdexing. That's why there are people who don't consider such because it's a bad idea to use doorway pages.

    Doorway pages: These are pages that regular visitors cannot see, but search engine spiders can. They are used to trick the search engines so that the site gets a higher ranking. Not only do they go against the rules, but they also hurt the visitor's experience. It's a one part of black hat SEO technique.

    hi johnsander,

    it's a common word int he black hat seo world. they use these kind of pages to fool the visitors.

    when the search engines crawl the webpages they find the page perfectly alright & it get's ranked in the SERPs, but when the user click on the link they are redirected to another page.
    this is also used by people who sell high PR domain names.

    a quick tip: if you buy old domain names try to check for it thoroughly that it has the actual PR claimed by the owner.

    kindest,
    abhishek kundu

    According to one MR. fredsmith, in other threads, there is no such thing as black hat SEO, though.

    Don't ever create Doorway pages, it means you are cheating SE. Doorway means showing different contents, one for SE and another for visitor's. It's a Black Hat technique.

    Doorway pages are simple HTML pages ,Doorway pages are specifically aimed towards search engine spiders - once a searcher lands on a doorway page, they are instantly redirected to the "real" website.

    I think that maybe asking how to would not be a good idea. With its connection to BH and the fact that Google targets these pages, it could do more damage to your site than good. IMHO.

    Doorway pages are simple HTML pages that are customized to a few particular keywords or phrases.They are programmed to be visible only by specific search engines..The purpose of these pages is to trick the search engines to give high ranking for our sites.

    Doorway pages are another way that sites can attempt manipulate search engines.Many times a doorway page will contain hundreds of links, which search engine tricks to improve the site's ranking based on popularity.
