Does link-juice pass through JavaScript links?

Does link-juice pass through JaveScript links? For example, if a pagerank 6 site links to site2 using a link created with JavaScript, will site2 benefit from that link?

For example, I'm considering using a link rotator script (like URL Rotator Pro or csRandomText), but want to be sure that the links it creates will pass link-juice, so the linked sites benefit from the links.

 

Google does not read javascript links. So, they do not pass juice.

 

Thanks for clarifying that.

Is there a way to rotate links so Google will pass juice to the destination URLs?

 

you could use php to call a link (randomly) from a database once per page load?

 

Great idea. Thank you. Do you happen to know of a free script that does this? I realize it's probably simple, but I'm not a PHP coder; I'm more of a "PHP code tweaker."

 

I think I found the answer with this PHP script: PHP Random Quote Generator. This script selects one random quote from a MySQL database. It allows the use of HTML tags, so it can be used to display banners, images, bg images, text, links, etc. It also features a marker that prevents displayed quotes to repeat themselves until all quotes have been displayed.

 

There is another simple option at Simple Ad Rotation Script and a List Apart.

 

You should keep in mind that this will not pass juice evenly to the different URLs that you rotate. It will only pass juice to the URL that is being displayed when google crawls that page.
