Hi Anthony, Not sure that 'hiding it behind a click' is a fair description. There is typically a lot of demand for the real estate on the main page of any site. Certainly extending the page down is... we kind of free - as consumers seem to get the top/bottom hierarchy of information.
Would it be 'hiding' the information if you put it in a drawer or exposed it in a layer upon click? If I come to the site three times a day over the course of several months. I am not sure that one or two times I need the contact information is worthy of taking the space and adding to the noise level near the top. A general rule... or even a debate over specific hypotheticals is probably not going to clarify this issue or bring it to any resolve. My 2 cents.
