Need website promotion ASAP!
Hello all. Our website (which I will provide if requested) is doing significantly less business than what it used to. We had it redesigned, and we have been doing about 85-90% less business since. We used to be listed in the top 5 on Google on any product listed on our site, now the hits are much more sporadic. We will show up on some items and not show up at all on others. A customer could search for X product on Google, and we would be listed in the top 5, now nothing. Does anyone know how this happened, how it can be fixed and any legit companies that will help us get our products listed on Google again?
Thanks guys, Brandon

<speculate>It is possible that your site redesign has caused problems that you didn't anticipate with your client's browsers. Lots of people are not using IE anymore - some web designers create non-compliant pages that only appear properly in IE. The Firefox browser blocks popup windows by default, so if your site relys on popup windows, you might want to reconsider that. As for the PageRank problem, as I understand it that system ranks your site on the Google engine according to parameters that include the number of pages that link to yours so if your site links changed, there are probably a bunch of dead links out there that aren't being ranked as 'yours'. I think the only way to 'fix it' without paying for advertising or 'going back' to the way it was is to wait until those sites refresh their links to yours.</speculate> Of course, that whole thing could be all wrong, but I figured I'd shoot it out there. Good luck.
