      My company introduced Java script pages with #!/ and it looks like once we created those new pages the traffic went down. Any idea how to improve it?

        Without additional info like the actual url questions like this are impossible to answer. Did you see the rankings for you major keywords go down? Is your site still accessible for bots? Is analytics working properly?...

        PS You still have an open question here - https://moz.com/community/q/access-to-ga-revoked - you might mark that one as answered

          I would echo what Dirk said and add to that.

          1. Did you do 301s from the old URLs to the new URLs?

          2. Are the new URLs crawlable by Google? These type of links are notoriously bad for SEO because they're almost always implemented improperly.

          3. How long ago did all this happen? Has Google caught up?

          4. What URLs are in your sitemap now?

          5. Again, it's probably related to not being setup correctly. I have seen 100 of these clients and maybe only 1 or 2 that was done with any intent to make sure it still ranks. Check: https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/docs/getting-started?hl=en

          Finally, you said you just introduced these as new pages? Consider this: http://searchengineland.com/google-has-deprecated-their-ajax-crawling-scheme-233402

          If Google is going away from these pages and you're going toward them, that is something I would seriously think about for the future of the site.
