Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hi Chris, yes i have been recommending a move from this old version of cubecart for four months, no avail :(. However the isse of noindexing is not really down to cubecart, its down to product listing managers copying data from other sources and not having the time to update it, as we sell our own products and they are not branded, the noindex issue on products is not a huge issue but i agree we are definately missing our on long tails!

Ha, okay, got it! Go after some long tail content and start adding some value to the site and you should have a broader scope and some pages that will rank on their own merit. Gives you something constructive to do and some possible link targets!

Hi Andy, thanks for this, there where several positive forum posts written more recently including high posts that had more replies, content and visitors than this ranked thread - on the same website. One of our biggest concerns is we have had many issues with this thread so we know customers see it, but our customer base is tech savvy and with trust in ecommerce ever increasing people are hunting the brand in SERPS - not only this they feature in a lot of magazines so branded searches are still our highest conversion. PPC is definately an option for us, branded will cost us less, we are thinking of utilizing social which hasnt been touched since before i started, so some potential there - thanks for your great idea on social share and links to reviews, if we keep this relevant i hope this will have some impact. We are trying to reach the owner of the thread in question too as this customer was not only refunded but was given a full apology and their problem was fixed Fingers crossed! Chris
