Hi, any of you having problems with google indexing your oscommerce store?. I am, currently 1 month and my catalog didnt appear in google, only the main html page with the link to the catalog, and what i was gona ask if it matters if u got your shop on the root, cause at the moment i got it in /catalog. If i change it to the root will it make a change? And if so, is it dificult to change the paths to the root? i dont know much about coding, any help would be nice.

A new site generally won't get more than a page indexed sooner than 2-3 months so you just haven't waited long enough. Moving the shop to the root is a good idea and it is better to do it now than after all of your pages are indexed. Changing the configure files is easy. You just need to remove the references to the catalog directory.
