Report Says Ajax Monkeys with Search Crawlers
Ajax not only disrupts the entire page view model, but apparently it monkeys with Google's crawlers too.
According to a report, the reader content that's being added to the new USAToday.com is not going not be indexed by Google or other search engines. That's because all of the new goodies, including reader blogs and other social-networking and bookmarking features, were built with Ajax. Man all that potential Google Juice is going to waste.
Is this true? It's news to me but it seems logical. I wonder if this will slow down the move towards building sites with Ajax. SEO jockeys, please weigh in.
