Yahoo have changed his algorithms is the last two week
every site that has used hidden text for yahoo optimization
is are will be thrown out, believe me I lost over 10 domains in yahoo, that went from being a 1-5 listing to a thrown out domains, as you all know yahoo works very very slow so you
may have some time.
Good luck

Whether what you are saying is true or not, it will make all that are using gray or black hat techniques to be always looking over their shoulders; as they should. Someday at sometime there will be a boogey man at your door. Is this the day and the time?

75c agrees: I hope it's true - don't hide things!
CID_za agrees: Yip. Black Hat just shouldnt pay off.

I hope so, I'm weary and tired of battling myths with know-it-all bosses.

I know of one site/page that has a lot of hidden text (done in a "2001" sorta way - so maybe it's innocent in Yahoo's view), but it doesn't seem to have dropped. Mind you it wasn't ranking well to begin with.

I agree that they might have done something to get rid of high-profile evil stuff to clean up the top serps. As you do... ;)

Nope, didn't filter a test site of mine with hidden links. I don't think they could possibly tell they were hidden the way I did it though.

Tell us your url - I can't believe there's a way to hide links which isn't obvious, lol. And what are Froums by the way? Sounds like a Cornish stew of some sort ;-) My bet is squirrel and turnips with a garnish of St. John's Wort... Yummm!!!

I'd rather not give a url, but there are a few easy ways to do it. One would be using external css. Cloaking would do it, either via ip address or user agent, or you could get creative with some frames. The first or second would be my choice though. If you are creative enough it is hard to tell.
