How will this effect my site?

    Hello,
    I have a question I am thinking about. Right now, for all my downloads on my site, I just have links to each download. I have been looking around for a way to manage my downloads better, and came across this Olate Download management system. However, the only way I have found to integrate this into my Joomla site is to use the IFrame plugin to the JCE editor. What it does is nserts another webpage within the actual site itself. Anyways, I was wondering, if I went about this, and made all of my downloads view into this iFrame (would look like it is embedded into the page), would this affect my site a lot in regards to ranking in SE's? I am looking at both sides right now. I know that the page I am linking to in the IFrame would increase, but would this kill the ranking of the actual page? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

    Hello,
    Out of all the forums I have been to, this is the place I'd expect a response the quickest. I hate to have to bump, but I'd like to get started on this during this weekend, and it is a question that I have been trying to answer for several weeks now. Any idea or guess' are appreciated. Thanks

    I don't think it will affect as it's just 1 link may be to a "zip" file which are anyway of no use to search engines...
    Can't say for sure.
    Try it out for a few days and if you see some drop or something, switch back to your previous method.
    Bye :)
