In marketing, a lead is a prospective customer. Not all leads are equally promising, and not all engagement types are the same that signify a potential lead. Any engagement with your company or website, though, indicates a potential lead.

Keyword stuffing is a “black hat” SEO technique, wherein sites will “stuff” a webpage with words on a topic they’d like to rank for, but without concern for the usability, accuracy or informational value of the page.
This practice is frowned upon by search engines and can damage your search rankings if you engage in it.
