I was searching for an alternative solution for a web hosting server based in Singapore and I found one of the sites listed on the first page having this:

This site looks great to average person, but digging further I “accidentally” found these text “hidden” in the header using H1 tags.

And these don’t only appear in the first page, but on almost every page on their site.

Gosh. I know Singapore Web Hosting is a very competitive industry… but are they trying too hard? Hiding text like that is definitely black hat SEO, isn’t it?

Let me know – would you lose trust in a site when you find sneaky text like that?
