Can Google Crawler Read Content of RSS Javascript?

I will be using this RSS Javascript widget for my website: http://www.surfing-waves.com/feed.htm

However I want answers to some questions:

1. Can the crawler read the content of the RSS on my site or just the javascript code?
2. Does it helps in SEO in any form?
3. Are there any non javascript RSS widget available?

Thanks for answering!!

 

Hi
If you are talking about the JAVA script then crawler does not goes for any scripting language. And rss is more important part of the SEO.

 

well not in a min.... still takes time.

Thanks for your answers. So will it help me in SEO if I use an RSS widget on my website?

 

if you mean Googlebot - it can read static content. it doesn't typically index Javascript-generated content (although some other crawlers do).

RSS feeds sure can, when used wisely. we use short snippets from RSS feeds to "fatten up" deep pages on our sites which would otherwise have too little unique content.

yes - you can consume RSS feeds with a server-side script as well. lots of them at hotscripts for example.

Thank you so much for your precise answer!! I will be checking out hotscripts.
