Google PSA: Placing Content In JavaScript Array May Cause Indexing Issues...

Google's Gary Illyes issued a PSA (public service announcement) on Twitter last night that basically warned content within a javascript array that only when expanded when you click e.g. "...", won't be indexed by Google. Here is the tweet:

PSA: If you put contents in a javascript array and only expand them when you click e.g. "...", those contents won't be indexed by Google

This goes back to what we covered a ton of the past year or so. Here are those topics:

• Google: We Won't Index Dynamic Content Behind Tabs
• More From Google On Hidden Content Within Tabs & Expand All
• Google Not Crawling "Click To Expand" Content Now?
• Google: Your Content In Tabs & Click To Expand May Not Be Indexed Or Ranked
• Google: display:none May Backfire; Google Weighs It Less
• Google: If Your Hidden Content Is Relevant To Users, Don't Hide It From Them.

So not much new here but for some reason, Gary felt to send out that PSA.
