NEED HELP::My google listing is slipin' down

[Eccus]

Hello to all:
The website I work for I completely dynamic. Most people who link to us do so via affiliate links. I have noticed that my pagerank has gone down from 4/10 to 3/10 and in doing searches on Google, I am noticing that my affiliates who have html pages come out even before my own url.

Can someone gime me some tips on how to recuperate my rankings?

Url: <snip>

Eccus,

It would be helpful if you would pretend that your domain name is widgets.com or example.com, and show the form of a link into your site. WebmasterWorld does not allow posting of personal URLs or keywords or the URLs or keywords of your competitors. But providing example URLs to illustrate your problem is OK as long as they are generic, i.e. www.example.com/catalog/redwidgets?userid=10777369&a=3012&p=114

It may be that these incoming links are too long and variable-laden for Google, or it could be something else.

I apologize for posting the url... I did not know of such rule... :-(

As I mentioned on my previous post, most people prefer to link to us thru affiliate links because of the nature of the offer (we give away free stuff, no credit cards required). According to Google, we only have 34 sites linking to us.

Is my pagerank going down because the site been all dynamic?
Or is it because there is only 34 direct links to us?

What can be done to improve my pagerank?

Eccus,

Your problem can be caused by many things. You might want to try posting over in Advertising Sales and Affiliate Programs [webmasterworld.com] to see if anyone else has had the same problem.

Will re-desing help?
We are planning on doing so because we have a very old look (about 3 yeards old)
