I work for a modelling agency and I've just taken on the task of optimising the website. I was doing some searches in google and I noticed that one site was getting ranked consistently highly. I took a look at their source code and somehow they have managed to get a layer of hidden keyword text in some sort of hidden layer behind the actual visible page.
It looks like they're using this code: to hide the text:
(in index page) <div id="etmark" style="visible:hidden;">
(in css) #etmark {
position:absolute;
left:100px;
top:100px;
z-index:1;
visibility:hidden;
}
but I was under the impression that non visible text was blacklisted by google these days? I'm new to SEO and everything like this but this is something that google make very clear they exclude.
Could anybody help me out with what these guys have done here as they are getting very good rankings... and I want them too! :D
