    Hey..

    I'm someone who currently only uses Wordpress to manage right now to manage my sites, and I recently wanted to move into some premade HTML templates because some of them look pretty good.

    Anyways I started using some GenBucks affiliate templates, now I'm wondering if I edit all the titles, keywords, description and content will I still get indexed in Google?

    I read there might be problems using affiliate templates, but then thousands use the same Wordpress themes so I figured I'd ask to find out.

    One of the sites is in my signature if you want to see how it's set-up currently.

    -Scott

    We build websites using WordPress and we do not have a problem. The key is using a Google friendly XML sitemap that way you can assure that all of your pages get indexed.

    As Australianfranchises pointed out, what google looks at is your main content and disregards template code.

    You should, but why are you using an affiliate template to begin with?
