cloking is use to describe hiding affiliate links and
Doorway pages are Web pages designed and used to rank high or misdirect the user

[remfans]

Cloaking (not cloking or clocking) is used to show different content to search engines than the real one seen by human visitors. It is an attempt to increase search engine rank for certain keywords. Manzar, cloaking is not the same as hidden text!
Doorway pages (also known as gateway or entry pages) are redirecting visitors, without their knowledge, to other web pages. It is a form of cloaking.

Cloaking and doorway pages both are spamming techniques.

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.

clocking refers to the practice of presenting different content or URLs to users and search engines.

Both are black hat seo techniques.
