Your issues are probably not with your version of actinic, nor your selected theme, you are lacking basic fundamental SEO areas on your page. Check your page titles for starters, they were all the same (just company name) on the pages I looked at. Have a read of the section tutorial on my site and learn the basics you want to have in place.

Clean CSS themes would be the best actinic themes, with non-cgi navigation links.

non-cgi navigation links.

Whilst best to avoid these Google is getting better at indexing cgi-bin links.

You may be getting hit for possible cloaking as the green on white text is very feint on my monitor - the breadcrumb trail is almost invisible - setting white on white (or very low contrast text) is an old black hat trick and hit with a heavy hammer. You should darken the text not only for Google but also your site visitors.

Thanks Jont, very valuable information.

Hi

Thanks for your help, have started to change the Page Title, by removing our company name and just brand names instead. Will start playing around with colours over the next few days.
