How does lazy load effect SEO?
-
One of my clients implemented lazy load on part of the navigation and I am wondering what the effects will be.
Specifically, the drop-down navigation does not load until you hover over it.
That means when you look at the page source that drop down navigation is no longer there.
I am wondering if that means the google bot no longer sees the links in the navigation drop down.
I am looking into this because the dev department of this company is going to do what it wants to and they need proof that its a bad move. I already suspect that it is. Too early to tell what the effects will be and not sure if there is a built-in delay in the algorithm as to when it will impact rankings.
Ultimately, I am wondering if my belief that if you can't see it in the page source then as far as that particular page goes it is not seen. That would be an important thing to verify as being true.
