Google and display:none
-
Hi Guys,
i want to know what you think about solution which i have to switch content in tab on my page.
Here: http://www.exprestlac.sk/beta/produkt/vizitky i have some important content in tabs, which are switching via javascript.
So when you click there on O produkte next to Ceny it will show you product description.
My problem is that in source code when page is loaded i have this:
Product description..
And after user click on O produkte javascript remove that display:none and show content. But Google will see only display:none as i think.
Can i get penalty from Google? Will it index this text?
Thanks for your suggestions how to resolve this.

I agree with Aran, as long as you use the display:none in a legitimate way, Google is unlikely to penaltize you for it. Even if they got as far as manually reviewing your website, they would see you've intended no foul with the display:none.

Hi,
I think its unlikely that you will get a penalty for using display none in this way. Also, Google will index the content from the product description. If you have the Web Dev Toolbar in Firefox, try turning CSS off and look at the page for a basic Googlebot view of the page. You can see that all the 'tabbed' content that is normally hidden is shown. This may also highlight some other issues on the page (hint hint)...
Cheers
Aran

Does Google Understand H2 As Subtitle?
I use some HTML 5 tags on my custom template. I implement <header class="entry-header-outer"> Flavour & Chidinma – 40 Yrs 40 Yrs by Flavour & Chidinma </header> html code. h1 tag serves as the title, while h2 tag servers as the subtitle of the post. Take a look at it here: https://xclusiveloaded.com/flavour-chidinma-40-yrs/ I want to know if it's ok or should I remove the h2 tag. Guys, what is your thoughts?

OMG! does Google really consider text-decoration:none as a hidden link?
So I was reading this article today https://www.mattcutts.com/blog/hidden-links/ Can setting a link to the same color as regular text and applying text-decoration:none really be considered a 'hidden link'?

Is there a way to tell Google a site has duplicated content?
Hello, We are joining 4 of our sites, into 1 big portal, and the content from each site gonna be inside this portal and sold as a package. We don't wanna kill these sites we are joining at this moment, we just wanna import their content into the new site and in a few months we will be killing them. Is there a way to tell Google to not consider the content on these small sites, so the new site don't get penalised? Thanks,
