It's called "cloaking" and Google looks down heavily (http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=35769 http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en...) on it:
Make pages primarily for users, not for search engines. Don't deceive your users or present different content to search engines than you display to users, which is commonly referred to as "cloaking."
- zackattack 17y agoWell I think that if you cater to your users with soft hyphens but show the unhyphenated content to Google, it wouldn't make sense for them to look down on that. But a possible risk is that they do scan for cloaking and automatically deduct for that. Though that would be a rather sophisticated system. Then again, they are Google. Oh yeah, Google's tech support system sucks btw. Someone would make big bucks if they found a way to make that fun and efficient for their tech support staff. Tech support in general. It's rarely fun to call in to tech support. Shouldn't it be fun? Zappos style. Duuude: SMS text support. Text your initial question, and someone calls you. Kinda like Aardvark except now. http://www.facebook.com/Eckharttolle http://www.facebook.com/Eckharttolle
