New layout, google leaves us

Javascript really that bad?

When we started developing our new layout, we really didn't know a thing about SEO and content was always our main thing, and it still is, but unfortunately our site is very bad indexed by google, and it seems google does not even want to spider the new layout.

We do use a lot of javascript, and I want to at least change the trackers that link to other sites to plain HTML. But the content and text of the site already is and should be spiderable, I have now been waiting for two months, but it seems google really doesn't want it, so I would like to know, is there something I do really bad.

It also seems the freshbot has stopped indexing us (looking from the cache) and we use no tricks or whatsoever. Could anyone give their opinion on what to do?

Because I believe a good site without good SEO is not really a good site.

Hello MartijnH, welcome to WebmasterWorld!

The most important thing would be to have all pages internally linked to with straight links.
Other than that I would think it can in fact take one more update before all new pages are fully indexed.
