<div id="RTEContent">Hello again,<br> <br> The following is a link to a website that uses the hCard micro-format and it is from the article on this website that I posed my original question as to whether micro-formats could be considered spam due to hidden text. Sorry I should have provided the reference sooner.:<br> <br> http://usabletype.com/articles/2005/usable-microformats/<br> <br> This example of micro-formats does indeed use hidden text via CSS for the on-page display of address information. <br> <br> Here is a useful article regarding SEO and hidden text from one of Google's engineers, Matt Cutts:<br> <br> http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/seo-mistakes-unwise-comments/<br> <br> Although the article mainly concerns the use of hidden comment text throughout his blog there are references to NOT using CSS to hide text.<br> <br> Check out this article for further references:<br> <br> http://www.searchenginelowdown.com/2005/11/jagger-or-jger-googles-update.html<br>
<br>Let me know what you think, maybe the question could do with clarification from Google themselves.<br> <br> Kind Regards,<br> <br> Justin.<br> </div><p>
