The main way of navigating round my website is by using a javascript menu. There are several big advantages to using this – perhaps the biggest being whenever the content/structure of my site changes, I only need to edit one file (the .js file) rather than every single page. But the biggest disadvantage is that whenever my site is scanned by search engine robots (which apparently don’t read .js files), there are no “real” links for them to follow – so only the first page is indexed and much of my content goes unnoticed by search engines.
Does anyone have a clue as to how I can make my site navigation bot-friendly without compromising on the easy updating and stylish navigation that a javascript menu brings?
(PS “stylish navigation” means no frames, in my book at least!)
