display:none makes the link invisible in some screen readers, the off-left method is better solution for hiding content in the visual design intended for screen reader/keyboard users.

Example:

// remove from visual design
.hide {
        position:absolute;
        left: -9999px;
}
// show to keyboard users
.hide:focus {
        left: 0;
}

The display:none technique is pretty much the norm now for this screen reader issue.
