A client of mine wants to have their work ordered randomly on the website each time you load the page. My concern is that Google will see this as an effort to try and trick it into changing content which is not the intention. Please advise anyone with any experience of this, there don't seem to be any clean cut answers.I've mentioned the issues with UX familiarity and it being a bizarre behavior but it is still somewhat desired.
Google - will they penalize you for random content ordering?
google;seo
Even if you find an answer today then maybe a Google policy update will put you in trouble zone so why take the risk.I suggest you tackle the problem differently. Always display your content in the same order inside your HTML and do order it randomly via JavaScript or jQuery dynamically.Good luck.
