Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thanks Todd,

This doesn't quite answer my question though when it comes to passing the link juice from my alternate home pages to the version I would like to use

What is the difference between URL rewriting and 301 redirects? Specifically if my home page is rewriting the www. version and the /index.html version rather than 301 redirecting them is this equivalent? Does it still pass the link juice on those alternate variations the same way a 301 redirect will?

I thought it was simple as that too. But without any title tags I dont see how I have any chance of ranking in a relatively competitive industry...

Do you have any personal experience or data for choosing the content over the tags? Keep in mind, these are product category pages like this - so the content will still be unique in the different names of the products. I just wont be able to add any additional content to that page...if you get what Im saying...

Do you still suggest to add additional content over the unique title tags?

The content management system for my e-commerce site will not allow me to add both: unique content and unique title tags to each of my product category pages. Since I am forced to choose one or the other...which one is more important for rankings? And please dont answer "get a new CM system"...thats not an option. Thanks
