Pagerank + Javascript

    Hi,

    I know google gives content toward the top of your pages a bit more weight than those at the bottom, so I was wondering which of the following solutions would be better for my google listing:

    1) Have a massive javascript library included in my page with <script src="">

    2) Include the javascript with AJAX and then eval it


    With #1, the code is more accessable for people with older browsers (not that most of it would work with older browsers anyway), but with #2, the main content of my site will be closer to the top of the document. So, what I'm asking is:

    a) Does google ignore javascript completely?
    b) Should I incorperate solution #1 or #2?

    Cheers

    Google bot cannot read javascripts, then your javascripts cannot found by google bot. But in ajax type, if you use dom - i think robot can found your content.

    Virtually all crawlers ignore or almost entirely ignore JS. What are you trying to accomplish with the JS?

    Hi,
    To improve your website performance i will suggest to use some proper SEO tools to check if the SE bots will see your site content the right you want it.. and more important if they get the keywords you want from your content.

    You can find many tools here: SEO/SEM Tools

    Hope will be handy for you work!

    Cris
