      Hello All!

      My website is due for a big update soon, my current site is doing ok, however I want to update all of the content, structure, style and look of my whole site.

      I feel that with the way it's been going lately that it's time for an upgrade, my question is, will this affect my ranking?

      Will my page ranking's be affected?

      Will my DA be affected?

      I intend to optimize this new website perfectly too with all the things I've learnt since joining this forum.

      All the best,

      Paul

        hello paul.

        Full website update effects rankings thats for sure.

        But the question is will the effect be positive or negative. I re-designed my website 8 months back. and made some mistakes in the code section..  well i was trying to be a ninja and converted it to html5/css3..

        yes my rankings + pr dropped .

        on the other hand my rankings improved on a diffferent project of mine where i optimized my site in a better way like reduced loading time, no code/validation errors. Better focused and related content. Improved titles etc.

        So you will have to consider multiple things before you go in such a huge update.
