Thank you for your response, I have a few questions:
1. heatmapping tool (you refer to sitemap.xml and it submitted to Google) ?
2. Remove options withing template layout, do you thing we can remove on the category pages the links included into the head (starting with Home ... Promo Codes) and the other starting with MAC OS ... Flash ?
3. Also use less pagination actually we are using 14 pagination links (remove them to 5)?
Waiting for your ideas
Thank you

For the crawler to reach coupon sub categories, there are many many other links throughout each page in the retrieval process. If you want these pages to receive more authority restrict the total number of links offered on the page, perhaps limit the number of coupons within the paginated display.
I'm going to recommend using a heatmapping tool or digging into analytics. Figure out where people are clicking on your site and where you have wiggle room to remove some of the options within the template layout.

Dear Takeshi,
This is the Home Page http://tinyurl.com/5v9hrql (PR=5) which links to the first category Audio and Multimedia (PR=4) http://tinyurl.com/m8c8zzz and it links to the related subcategories all PR=0 for example Rippers and Converters http://tinyurl.com/la9cjcl the same occurs with all subcategory pages across the site, any idea or suggestion, I feel something is wrong and I can't figure what.

How do you get to the sub category pages? I don't see any links except to coupon pages, which do have PR.

Google image search
How does google decide which image show up in the image search section ? Is is based on the alt tag of the image or is google able to detect what is image is about using neural nets ? If it is using neural nets are the images you put on your website taken into account to rank a page ? Let's say I do walking tours in Italy and put a picture of the leaning tower of pisa as a top image while I be penalised because even though the picture is in italy, you don't see anyone walking ? Thank you,

Case Study Mystery
This has been driving me slowly mad for ages - a site that consistently outranks my client site despite my clients site apparently being more SEO friendly on every level: Google UK search term "chimney sweeps london" My client site: http://apexchimneysweeps.co.uk The other site: http://www.firkinschimneysweeps.co.uk Can anyone shed any light on how this is happening? I really hope I'm being an idiot and missing something obvious! Comparisons: (A = apex F = firkin) Domain age: A 2000 / F 2013 Domain Authority: A 16 / F 9 Page Authority: A 29 / F 22 I would say Apex page content is better and is certainly updated more often.

Google search results
I have been doing some searches on google to see where my new site shows up, I started using the search words "graphic design firm st. louis" as a gauge, because my title is St. Louis Missouri Graphic Design Firm. I showed up on about page 5 to start , if I include the word "firm" and a few pages further back if I just search "graphic design st. louis", without the word firm. It seemed i was slowly moving up pages with both searches and then a few days ago I jumped to page 1 for search "graphic design firm st. louis" the thing is it doesnt show up at all now if i search "graphic design st. louis" without the word firm. what would cause the one search to jump so high while the other one dissapeared completely?? and what can i do? my keyword density is same for both , any ideas.

Why is this site not indexed by Google?
Hi all and thanks for your help in advance. I've been asked to take a look at a site, http://www.yourdairygold.ie as it currently does not appear for its brand name, Your Dairygold on Google Ireland even though it's been live for a few months now. I've checked all the usual issues such as robots.txt (doesn't have one) and the robots meta tag (doesn't have them). The even stranger thing is that the site does rank on Yahoo! and Bing. Google Webmaster Tools shows that Googlebot is crawling around 150 pages a day but the total number of pages indexed is zero. It does appear if you carry out a site: search on Google however. The site is very poorly optimised in terms of title tags, unnecessary redirects etc which I'm working on now but I wondered if you guys had any further insights. Thanks again for your help.

DMCA Complaint to Google - HELP
I have several sites copying my content, which I found out via Copyscape.com. Unfortunately, this is giving me duplicate content. I filed a DMCA complaint through Google and the infringing pages were approved but the pages still remain. Can someone please help me understand this better? I thought Google was supposed to remove these pages? Am I supposed to content the site owner to get the content removed or are their pages simply de-indexed?
