Negative references to Javascript in Beginners Guide to SEO (chapter 4)
-
There are numerous negative references to using JavaScript in the Beginners Guideto SEO. Our site was created on Wix that uses JavaScript. Can this impact our Google rankings? Are the references still valid?
We rebuilt our site on Wix in July, 2015. Previously on GoDaddy for 4 years, but could not make the site mobile friendly via GoDaddy editor, so moved to Wix. ANY Suggestions for www.MyLongarm.com? mike

It is in there because Google struggled to read Javascript. I would imagine the guide was create a while ago and since then Google can see JavaScript however it might not be as useful as a normal website, generally I would recommend you try to move away from Wix as I've seen many people struggle with their SEO and that site. However Google will still index your website all okay and there is no massive problems if your site is created for users as a priority.
Hope it helps & Good luck.

Explain me how you use keyword explorer for SEO
Hello, Can you explain me how you use keyword explorer for SEO because I watched many video and after watching them everything is a little confusing... From my understanding, you have you main keyword let's say "Normandy bike tours". Based on that keyword you decide to cover TOPICS. Let's say I decide to cover D-Day landings, Omaha beach and and Caen on my page about" Normandy bike tours" ( I could cover more or others I imagine but now let's say those TOPICS are the ones I have decided to cover. From that point on what I understand is that I need to cover each of those TOPICS and the way to cover each of them is to type each of those words separately in the keyword explorer and look for words that the keyword explorer gives mes that it considers to be "semantically related" to each of those TOPICS. Then, if I choose the corrects one google will understand the different TOPIC and that should boost my ranking. Is it the whole idea ? PS : How many do you look at to find semantically related words ? 10, 20 or more ? Thank you,

Does relative CTR affect organic SEO efforts?
Hello fellow MOZ'ers! Like many of you, I've been reviewing the Search Engine Ranking Factors 2015 Expert Survey and Correlation Data. My SEO Specialist position requires me to create positive SEO results for our clients' organic search ranking campaigns. As I understand it, "Relative CTR is a valuable number that can show users how their ads are stacking up compared to their competitors ads appearing on the exact same websites." My question is...Does relative CTR affect organic SEO efforts (positive or negative) in anyway? The campaigns I'm working on do not include AdWords efforts. Is this a factor I should ignore/look over? Or is there something I can do "organically" to influence this ranking factor in a positive way? Thanks!

How do I go about fixing my High Priority issues that SEO moz says I have on a PHP site?
I am been trying to deal with this problem for some time now. I have talked to several IT people and SEO moz. None seem to know how to fix these issues on the type of site our company is. Our biggest issue with is Duplicate Page Content. We also have some title issues. Our site is built with PHP coding and variable, meaning the site is not a typical static website. We have a handful of pages that are dynamic depending on what the users chooses to see and do. So, my problem is I can't just go to a specific page and put the canonical or the redirect. It isn't multiple pages for our category pages, for example, it is just one that builds the page depending on the search. Please help!

SEO REPORT
Hi, I have already searched the forum for this but the previous responses were a while ago. I used to think that there was a way of creating a SEO report using the information from Moz? But I can't seem to find that option now? Is there a way to create a report?
