      Hi,

      SeoMoz robot crawls only two web pages of my website. I contacts seomoz team and they told me that the problem is because of Javascript use. What is the solution to this? Should I contact my webdesign company and ask them to remove Javascript code?

        You'll need to post the URL of your website for us to give you a definite answer. Try browsing to your website then right click and select 'view source'. if you can't see the links in the source code then crawlers can't see them either.

        Sometimes menus are built badly with JavaScript, you will probably need to ask your developers to change your menu.

          Hi,

          Thanks for the quick response. My website address is

          http://www.medixschool.ca/Home/index.php

          I checked the code and I can see the links.

            Hi Maria,

            I've just had a very brief look and it seems that the menu is quite reliant on JavaScript (try disabling Javascript and you will see that you can't access most of your pages). Crawlers do not use JavaScript so this could be a problem.

            The ideal way to do this sort of thing is by showing and hiding menus with CSS, not JavaScript. I can have a better look and provide you with more info tomorrow if you need it.

              Thanks Maximise,

              I am in contact with my web developing company and looking forward for a response. Mean while it will be great if you can let me know more about it and how to go ahead with this.

              thanks

                Hi Maria,

                Your menu is not optimized, but the real problem is not coming from there. Your home http://www.medixschool.ca/ has a meta refresh leading to http://www.medixschool.ca/Home/index.php instead of a 301 redirect.

                You should remove this meta refresh and replace it by a 301 redirection.

                Best regards,
                Guillaume Voyer.
