A couple weeks ago, Martin Splitt from Google announced on Twitter that he and Lizzi Harvey from Google posted a new developer document on the basics of JavaScript and SEO. The guide describes how Google Search processes JavaScript and the best practices for improving JavaScript web apps for Google Search.
The document is broken into these sections:
- How Googlebot processes JavaScript
- How to describe your page with unique titles and snippets
- How to write compatible code
- When to use HTTP status codes
- How to use meta robots tags
- How to fix images and lazy-loaded content
One note from the SEO community:
Most interesting sentence in Google's new JavaScript SEO documentation. As suspected, nofollowed links are entirely ignored by Google. People who believe nofollowed links impact rankings are, imho, commiting the classic correlation/causation fallacy. pic.twitter.com/icM4jy5uYy
