SeoMoz robot is not able to crawl my website.
-
Hi,
SeoMoz robot crawls only two web pages of my website. I contacts seomoz team and they told me that the problem is because of Javascript use. What is the solution to this? Should I contact my webdesign company and ask them to remove Javascript code?

Hi Maria,
Your menu is not optimized, but the real problem is not coming from there. Your home http://www.medixschool.ca/ has a meta refresh leading to http://www.medixschool.ca/Home/index.php instead of a 301 redirect.
You should remove this meta refresh and replace it by a 301 redirection.
Best regards,
Guillaume Voyer. -
Thanks Maximise,
I am in contact with my web developing company and looking forward for a response. Mean while it will be great if you can let me know more about it and how to go ahead with this.
thanks

Hi Maria,
I've just had a very brief look and it seems that the menu is quite reliant on JavaScript (try disabling Javascript and you will see that you can't access most of your pages). Crawlers do not use JavaScript so this could be a problem.
The ideal way to do this sort of thing is by showing and hiding menus with CSS, not JavaScript. I can have a better look and provide you with more info tomorrow if you need it.

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response. My website address is
http://www.medixschool.ca/Home/index.php
I checked the code and I can see the links.
-
You'll need to post the URL of your website for us to give you a definite answer. Try browsing to your website then right click and select 'view source'. if you can't see the links in the source code then crawlers can't see them either.
Sometimes menus are built badly with JavaScript, you will probably need to ask your developers to change your menu.

How to Handle Website Merge?
We are a law firm and have another law firm merging into ours. Our branding will remain the same, but I am trying to figure out how to best handle their website transition. Should we link it to ours (although their PR & page authority are not significant) or should I map each page to ours with similar content with a redirect? MY main concerns are not damaging our website's SEO by doing something search engine's would frown on and also to try to take advantage of any organic traffic or referral traffic. Or maybe some combination - link homepage with added verbage that attorney is now with our firm and a link and redirect the sub-pages? I look forward to thoughts from anyone who might have experience with this type to issue. Thanks in advance! JulieHow t

How do I optimize a website for SEO for a client that is using a subdirectory as a seperate website?
We launched a subdirectory site about two months ago for our client. What's happening is searches for the topic covered by the subdirectory are yielding search results for the old site and not the new site. We'd like to change this. Are there best practices for the subdirectory site Specifically we're looking for things we can do using sitemapping and Webmaster tools. Are there other technical things we can do? Thanks you.

Optimizing Flash websites
Does anyone know the latest on how well Google is indexing flash sites? I'm talking to a prospect now whose site is 100% flash, but looking at it all the content within the site is indexed and returning in the results. This is promising enough, but does anyone know exactly how well Google is indexing flash content these days and are there still any problems with that? Thanks!
