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.

What does it mean when Moz KW explorer returns a negative keyword difficulty score (eg -2)?
I recently did a keyowrd difficulty lookup in Moz keyword explorer as usual and for the first time a saw several (out of 100s) of negative keyowrd scores (generally -2). Is this a bug, what does it mean?

Is there any way to automatically filter negative keywords out of Keyword Explorer results?
I use Keyword Explorer a LOT for fleshing out new campaigns. However, the results I get frequently contain queries with words that are in my negative keyword lists. Today, I solve this with export and some Excel wizardry but keep thinking how convenient it would be if there was a way to provide a list upfront of negative keywords and get pre-scrubbed results. Does this exist? If not, how can I escalate this as a feature request? 🙂

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?

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

Why isn't seo moz properly crawling my site?
In my campaign results, only 2 pages have been crawled, when there are many more. Also, when I do the on-page evaluation for my homepage and the main keyword, I get a grade of F, with a ton of errors that my page actually does not have. It's as if SEO moz is having trouble crawling through my site. Any ideas on this?
