Topic: Page Rank

My site has pr 3 on www.domain.net, but only pr 2 on www.domain.net/index.php

How do I fix that?

Re: Page Rank

This isn't a PunBB issue, you'd be better off asking at an SEO forum

Re: Page Rank

Moved to general discussion.

I'm no SEO expert, but I believe that you may at least partially fix that problem by making mod_rewrite rules or similar to redirect possible variants of the address to one single format. Also just being consistent with the URLs of links to your site (when you can control them) should help.

Looking for a certain modification for your forum? Please take a look here before posting.

Re: Page Rank

I think pogenwurst is right on
The issue is people linking to index.php versus /. Set up mod_rewrite to redirect all requests for index.php to / (or vice versa) with a 301 header and Google should "understand" it eventually
