Javascript usage

[Ideas-Money-Art]

Hi Guys,

I know that since a couple years Google can crawl and read better Javascript(JS), but JS can still harm your website especially in the navigational bar but I don't know how to identify it. Can Someone tell me how to identify in the source page when JS can harm your website?

Google work on the JS, and now they can read some of them. But still a problem for SEO. The best way to use the JS is to improve the user experience.

When you use JS to create the menus or other content stuff, than you will face a big problem, because google will not read it.

The most often problem is to use JS to create the menus. If it is your case, you will need to find another solution. Another problem with JS menu is that google now will give a lot o importance to text in the beginning of the website.

I had a menu in my website with JS. I solve including the follow menu from codecanyon.net. You find it here: http://codecanyon.net/item/css3-mega-drop-down-menu/126387

But how do you identify that your JS is harming your menu? When do you know that JS is harming your nav?

The best way is the Chrome extension "Google Eyes". With this extension you can see as a boot.You will find it here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nnfbmlcnheohiajjmloocbaclnpdhfdp
