Categories not indexed by Google

[Sharon-elizabeth]

Hello all,

 

I set up two different catalogs in my shop (one is deactivated at the moment) and installed the Header Tags Controller in order to optimise for the search engines.

Due to my catalogs being rather large (ie loads of categories) I decided to use drop down menu boxes (see www.macleshop.de) in order to achieve a more compact shop.

 

My problem is simply that Google is not indexing the links in my menu boxes because they are not active links as they would be if i used a normal navigation. Does anyone know of a way to get around this problem without having to revert to the old navigation system?

 

Best Regards,

 

Sharon

You could install one of the contributions like All Products or Sitemap_SEO. That way the SE's will get to all of your products through another path.

I was told it takes a while to get them indexed after you install the contrib. How long ago did you install it?
