Javascript links and Google

What is your opinion regarding javascript links?
Is Google see them and counts them?

 

if you are giving link with "<a href="jssite_url)">hfhfhf</a>" format, i believe it will be counted as backlinks

 

no, link written in this format
<img src="image.gif" width="212" height="74" align="right" onmouseover="this.style.cursor='hand';" onclick="window.open('index.php', 'newWindow')">

 

No, google don't count

 

google read java script but be aware of using it. a lot of 'black' sites use it for redirection.

 

Google does not recognize JS links. You can use the spider viewer to verify:

You aren't saying google penalize sites for using javascript are you?

Google use it themselves for everything from refreshing your gmail page to delivering your adsense adverts. There is nothing wrong with using as much javascript as you want, as long as you aren't trying to trick the search engines.

 

Don't use JavaScript links because Google doesn't see them. Search engines typically follow <a href=""> links.

 

Google can certainly read them (This has in fact been verified). What they are doing with the information is not published. I have yet to see or read anything about Google actually applying the information collected.

That doesn't mean they are not using it. Why would they tell you? What would be the benefit for them?

They say they don't use them for ranking. Why then would they tell people to use a "nofollow" tag. Why not just say use a nofollow or use javascript?

 

That is going too far with it. They are not supposed to tell that. Javascript is not just a way of hiding a link from search engines, it has alot of other uses. You cant expect google to be stupid enough to ask people to js for something which it is not designed for.

 

You can use js but do not do it in links.

 

why? can you explain your oppinion? thanks

 

I think that google recognizes Javascript links.
read this post :
Google Now Recognizes Javascript Links as Backlinks?

i want to use JS to control backlinks in all of my websites.
If google doesn't count these links as backlinks then what should we use ?

 

I'm getting a little confused regarding this.
is [url ]site[/url ] a javascript link?
I've read that BBcode is a form of html. So I don't think it's only <a href> that search engines read.

 

BBCode is used to get rid of malicious code. On server, BBCode is parsed and get converted into simple HTML.
