: What is the best SEO method for a single page website on which all content is loaded with initial page load I'm developing a single page website that will have all it's content available by

There is no way to get Google to index/rank part of a page. It's either all or nothing. If you use crawlable Ajax it should allow your content to be indexed as separate pages as it is obvious that as the escaped fragment links change the content changes, too (that's kind of the whole point of crawlable Ajax).

Of course that doesn't make it a good idea. In fact it's a bad idea. It's not accessible, your site fails when JavaScript is turned off, and you're essentially blocking your site from every other search engine in the world.

What you should be doing is breaking your content up into multiple pages with each page serving one purpose only. If you need to get content via Ajax then make sure you can get the same content without JavaScript so users can still use your site if they don't have JavaScript enabled (A.K.A. progressive enhancement).
