"Show More" Button Shows Hidden Results, But Does Google See Them?

Marketing

I’m trying to find the best way (in regards to SEO and SERPS) to have a list of links be indexed accordingly by google, though they start hidden with a show more button.

So, saying I have 40 videos for a particular film, I want to show the first twenty links with a button to show the rest (the links are there, just display:none at the moment). But I don’t want Google to ignore the hidden links.

What’s the best way to do a “Show More” button, AND get the links indexed and passing PA?

All feedback appreciated.

Cheers!

Google reads the HTML, so if they’re there, it will presumably see them.

Without any penalty on the hidden stuff?

I put the entire list of URLS into a div with Jquery-set height. The overflow: hidden is set, and when you say Show More, it reveals more height on the list.

Is this allowed?

Cheers!

Google will only penalise you if it detects that you are trying to manipulate search results by feeding content to search engines which is not visible to humans. This is not the case here, so you should have no problems.
