Website calling other images for other pages on the homepage?

    Hello,

    I have a Magento store with something fishy going on. When I run an analysis on my home page it shows that my website's homepage is calling images and such that belong on the add to cart and even checkout pages.

    I think this could possibly hurt my SEO rankings and such like that and even bring down the performance of my server.

    Any one have any idea how this could happen, or if it is bad?

    Best Regards,
    Nick

    probably just a mistake of whoever developed the Template you are using. Won't hurt performance. Doubt it has any influence on ranking. But you should still get it fixed so if those images are changed your site doesn't suffer.

    Possibly you missed the instructions in your template packabe to upload the images to your own server and link to them from there?

    Thanks everyone. Well here is the exact thing. I use http://websiteoptimization.com/services/analyze/ to analyze the speed and such of my homepage as it has been recommended by several DP members. In the report it shows images like "bkg_cart-totals.gif" that are not on my homepage, but do appear on my cart page? I do not see it in the html when I "view source" of the page. So I really have no clue how they are appearing at all.

    Any help here would be great.

    Best Regards,
    Nick

    If you don't see it in your home page coding then it's called in the CSS file for the cart pages.

    Just a thought, but have you got a side bar cart which may be in 'hidden' mode ? - or maybe you ripped out the code for it, but didn't quite get it all out ?
    Actually though, well it's magento lol - it's just a strange cart really (the code I mean)
