Session Id,is it affect my ranking???

[concakho]

today my traffic get back -120 visitors for site1, -530 for site2.

i think it is because of Session Id.

is there any effective way to kill Session Id.



i try 3 codes in .htaccess:



code 1:

php Code:

<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_value session.use_only_cookies 1
php_value session.use_trans_sid 0
IfModule>

code 2:

php Code:

<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0
php_value register_globals 0
php_value session.auto_start 0
php_value session.use_trans_sid 1
IfModule>

code 3:

php Code:

<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_value session.gc_maxlifetime "7776000"
php_value session.save_path "sessions"
php_value session.use_cookies "on"
php_value session.use_only_cookies "on"
php_value session.use_trans_sid "off"
IfModule>

but the problem not resolved yet.

my host didnot support php.ini files.

I spoke with few php programmers and they were sure that Google has no problem with session ids.

yes, but the problems in SEO, because there are difference between your-urls.com and your-urls.com/?PHPSESSID=75d5d32d62f133b96d35a80ceb61d6ad

session id using will make your site difficult to crawl by search engines. i suggest verybody to remove sessionid from their url

Session id's are great spider traps which is why they don't like to crawl them, if you insist on having dynamic url's at least use parameters that don't bear any resemblance to session id's or the use of id, cid, pid etc. best option is to mod re write the url if possible
