Thanks... but not really a fan of what other's like.. actually searching for ways to get around them.You can hide such a link with the css property 'display:none' or 'margin-left:-3000px', but it's well-known that Google doesn't like such practices. Why not simply have the link in your sitemap, which humans almost never visit, but bots do!
