Hi dear,hidden text comes under Black hat SEO and search engine does not give any permission to have nay hidden text in your web page,If there will be a hidden text then search engine can ban your web site on search engine.you can see hidden contents by pressing ctrl+A.Good luck.

nice post! i've seen site like that... but maybe it is just an accident or they don't noticed it at all.

What about nearly hidden text? If you set the color of the text almost the same color as the background it would be almost invisible.

chimps why would you even want to consider anything close to hidden text? It's a step below black hat. It's just stupid. If the text can't be clearly read on the page you will get busted sooner or later. If nothing else your competitors will report you.

You'd better not use this tactics. Never try to cheat search engine especially the powerful google. If not,your site will be penalized.

Why do you want to use hidden text? Don't do it or you will get banned by google.

it is one kind of a black hat. it is visible to the spiders (most of it are keywords), but not to the users
