hello there
pagerank suddenly plumeted from 4 … to 1 when i put cs cart in place
I noticed something not so great - google also does not cache the links on the left hand product menu
any tips? advice? mods?
prehaps a simple TPL file that i can stick in to make the left menu very simple so that google can sift through it.
peace!
your pr is not affected that much by your page, I bet if you left the old page up your pr would have dropped anyways
google just did a pr update , they penalized sites for:
link exchange
buying links
relevancy
unnatural links
Because google is evil
but what version of cs cart are you using?
under settings > appearance > Categories menu style
change the emenu to plain and see
Google just had a bigarsed PR update.
“changes”
Domains with PageRank based on Age have been devalued.
If you’re missing content or it’s smaller then it used to be then you’ll be losing out. At this point in time I’m gained +1 for all my domains.
okay thanks for the info chaps,
it was a pr4 brochure website with little functionality (about 5 yrs old) - updated to a shopping cart with lots of info + content and the pr dropped to 1…

the above is probably what happened
