Hi,
I want to put some words on my homepage so that it is found by search
engines.
These words should not be visible when viewing the page.
I have tried to make background and text the same color, but then the text
is visible when selected.
Is it possible to change the color of selected text?
I have also tried
<META NAME=KEYWORDS .....>
but Google seems to ignore that.
Any ideas? 7 31562

If the words represent the content, they should be part of the content.
You could try using <div style="display: none">blah</div> but Google
might ignore that, too.

Yes, it's possible. And there's no better way to get your page banned
from search engines, so don't do it. The only right place is the
meta-keyword and meta-description, and don't have high hopes for that
being of interest to search engines.

This is considered "spamdexing ," and may get you dropped from Google
altogether. http://www.google.com/webmasters/2.html
(see especially last bulleted item on page) http://www.turismotec.com/article3.htm

One of the things that will get you banned.

I think that's in CSS3. But it's a terrible idea. You're trying to
solve the wrong problem.

They sure do. Abuse of meta tags has made them useless. Google
(rightly) ignores them.
Any ideas?
Sure. Stop trying to fool your way to high rankings. Write meaningful
content. Use sensible, meaningful content. Make sure the server is
configured correctly. That's really the beginning and end of your job
as a web author. Let Google et. al. do their job, indexing your
content. Your *real* content.

Thanks everybody, I didn't know that this should not be done.
Had I thought about it (which I did not) it should have been obvious because
of possible misuse.
<snip> I want to put some words on my homepage so that it is found by search engines.
<snip>
I've recently seen a page that had a css:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
..ItsHidden { position: absolute; left: -1500px; top: -1000px;}
-->
</style>
Then for a table:
<table width="695" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"
class="ItsHidde n">
<tr>
<td><h1 align="center"> Heading - This Table Is Hidden</h1>
<p align="center"> Description Here</p>
<p align="center"> Menu</p>
<p align="center"> <a href="#">1 Link</a> | <a href="#">2
Link</a> | <a href="#">3 Link</a></p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
This is only hidden if the browser supports CSS so needs constructing
neatly.
I'm aware of google's advise but not sure how it would deal with this
Any thoughts

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
