      We always hear about how Google made this change or that change this month to their algorithm. Sometimes it's true and other times it's just a rumor.

      So this week I was speaking with someone in the SEO field who said that this week a change occurred at Google and is going to become more prevalent where content placed at the "top of the fold" on merchant sites with products are going to get better placement, rather than if you have your products at top with some content beneath them at the bottom of the page.

      Any comments on this?

        I heard this from Alan Mosley here at SEOmoz and he confirmed this. He send me this link that i think is very useful http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com.au/2012/01/page-layout-algorithm-improvement.html

        I  found a solution that i think help me without so many work. I bought at http://codecanyon.net/ a code for new menus layouts. But this menus has dropdown texts, very fancy and you bring content there.

        I selected the more popular one http://codecanyon.net/item/css3-mega-drop-down-menu/126387

        I hope this can be helpfull for you.

          Your link returns a 404. Could you cut and paste?
