How does the FSS jQuery plugin affect SEO?
-
Looking to create a full screen sliding site for optimum use on tablets. Found this:
http://codecanyon.net/item/fss-full-screen-sliding-website-plugin/full_screen_preview/159103
What is the general feeling on using FSS in terms of SEO?
Should it be avoided?
What's the alternative?
Thanks!

Hi Kane
Many thanks - yes we picked up on the .js in the header so we'll look at a workaround for this.
Thanks

The link you provided has an iFrame, but if you leave the iFrame and go to http://www.interactivegoods.com/fss/#/options you'll see the actual page.
When I open up the source, I see two things:
- Javascript in the head area.
- Zero content, just some empty divs and links to each section of content.
In the code, you see this:
If you take a look at those page2.html files, they're not even full html files, they're sections of code being used as if they were PHP include files. I haven't seen html files used that way before and I don't think it's a standard practice.
I avoid content loaded via javascript, because I've seen it cause issues for clients. I am not a javascript developer, so maybe there's a way to do it correctly, but I"m not familiar with it.
Personally, I would not use this plugin on one of my sites. Find one that uses divs to contain the content, and javascript to animate the sliding, rather than using javascript to load the content, too.

Static or dynamic category pages for seo
Hi, I'm developing an accommodation site with a limited number of properties in 8 categories. I had been looking at making the properties blog posts and then using category function to show lists but its going to require a lot of customisation and I have seo concerns about the dynamic content as the category page is crucial. As I don't have a lot to add and listings will remain the same my latest thought was to create all as pages. However if I create a page with a list of 12 properties on a category page is there anyway of adding some sorting criteria to that page (would be 7 options - swimming pool, near beach, on site creche, budget, mid-range, luxury) Thanks for any tips Neil

Optimizing a website which uses JavaScript and jQuery
Just a quick question (or 2) If I have divs which are hidden on my page, but are displayed when a user clicks on a p tag and the hidden div is displayed using jquery a user clicks on an a tag and the hidden div is displayed using jquery with the href being cancelled in both examples, will the hidden content be optimized, or will the fact it is initially hidden make it harder to optimize? Thanks for any answers!

Rel canonical = can it hurt your SEO
I have a site that has been developed to default to the non-www version. However each page has a rel canonical to the non-www version too. Could having this in place on all pages hurt the site in terms of search engines? thanks Steve

Wordpress Problems.. SEO-Yoast is Toast?
Hello; I have installed the WP Yoast Widget in my Blog, and 2 weeks, after my issues went away, they came back X's 300! lol So I uninstalled it, and my issues obviously got worse, and then I re-activated, and reset everything, and still got the 300+ issues. Is there a secondary plug in you would suggest, to run at the same time as Yoats, or theat will fix all issues? Ever think of making an SEOmoz Widget for WP since it is gaining so much popularity?? Thank you Great work by the way! Loved the Webinar today!
