This is fine if you don't stuff it full of keywords - make it relevant to the page, google will see it just as a H1 headings. It's smart thing to do if you don't want your heading visible for design purposes. Googles changes rules all the time but many websites use this technique and many of them are at the top. If don't mind having large heading then do it, but using css is acceptable method. CSS is intended for styling so why not H1 tags.

After reading this article, I realized that I was using h2 tags in my sidebar by mistake! They were emphasizing words like "links to interesting sites" and "about this site". Anyways, I changed them to use h4 tags and modified the CSS so the formatting didn't change. I hope this helps with my SEO. Thanks again! - Hugh Thank you for these tips.
