Hi Selvam,

No, it won’t be indexed. The attribute itself will be cached with the
page, but Google has no context of what the attribute or the value
means, so it is meaningless to search engines.

The advantage is that you can easily embed some scripting data
(still semantic, but not for display) with your elements without having
to insert inline javascript all over the place, and it will be valid
HTML5.

Also data- is a standardized part of the HTML5 spec. Semantically it’s the best way to go.

Thanks
