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.

Is it possible to find every reference to my company name across the internet?
I am trying to find every single website that mentions my company name (attempting to identify some negative posts.) It is a rather unique name but I suppose that kind of search would be difficult. Any ideas?

Moz Content --- for SEO or simply user engagement?
What is the primary function of Moz Content? It looks like it is most useful for managing content as a user engagement tool. Our content strategy is centered on boosting organic placement - with user engagement as a nice but unessential side product. Besides providing general descriptive details of a site's content / authorship - how can Moz Content help with SEO?

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!

Why is the exact same URL being seen as duplicate and showing an error in my SEO reports
Well, I am still having duplicate page issues. I have a question about one of the errors SEO is giving me when I download a crawl report. I am going to attach a screen shot of part of the report so you can see for yourself, along with explaining it here. SEO shows the list of URL's that it crawled in the report. In this(see attachment) portion of the report it has 321 results for the exact same URL. It also says all of these exact same URL's have received a 404 error. What I want to know is how does it make 321 results for the same URL? And with this error that I don't see when I look at the page? 0hkRDST

Moz Crawl Test Tool - SEO Web Crawler showing up with no details
So basically I have ran the Moz Crawl Test tool twice for this url "bubblingwithenergy.info" and both times the report has listed 1 URL when there is obviously a lot more if you check the site. My question is, why is the Moz Crawl only reporting 1 URL when there are heaps? Is there a possibility it is being blocked and if so what would be blocking it? This website is using a CMS called Infusion and it is based off CMSMS (CMS Made Simple). Any answers would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
