Thanks! Now my big issue is the whole "disabilities" issue. Have you heard that it helps with users with disabilities? Even if it is hidden?
Trying to figure this part out so I have a complete argument against it.
Thanks!

I am trying to triple check this - I have a client who has all of their H1 tags as hidden. As far as I am concerned, anything hidden is not a good thing for SEO.
I am debating with their online store provider that this is not good practice. Everything I am reading says it is not good practice. They are saying it is for "My SEO experience would suggest otherwise. In addition, the H1 adds semantic value for users with disabilities to help give them context with what the content of the page is."
Did I miss something?
They are a large brand and have not been penalized. This has been happening for 8 months.
Here is my bio from my website... but feel free to contact me for more info:
Previously Stephanie was Marketing Director at a professional photo retailer. She started her career in advertising and transitioned to client side work shortly after (she knew large companies and agencies was not for her). She has worked in various industries including insurance, software, hardware & online retail. She got her undergraduate degree from USC and her MBA in Marketing from the University of Notre Dame. (as you can probably guess, she tunes out during football season as it gets a little complicated) Her post MBA working career includes Wine.com, where she started did project management & she managed the Wine.com website - helped grow online conversion by 40%. She then transitioned to Shutterfly where she focused on customer acquisition. She managed a multi-million dollar organic and paid search program where she grew new customers and revenue by 60% year over year. At Shutterfly she also managed various customer acquisition programs such as partnerships (Results: Grew new customers by 32% and average new customer spend by 44% year over year), gift cards & prepaid products (Results: 68% increase in gift card & prepaid product sales) lead generation & online sharing. Oh, and if you can't tell, she is really focused on results.
She decided to start OurMarketingPerson after speaking to a variety of local businesses who just had no idea what to do to grow their online marketing presence and could not afford the traditional "consultant" & marketing fees. At the same time, she wanted to be closer to home (commutes are just no fun) so she can spend more time with her two young kids.
