    Hi,

    I've noticed a huge drop in google rank after enabling this plugin, and i have no clue why, from a user experience perspective the site is much more responsive.

    Using the "Fetch As Google-bot" i can't find anything bad, other then sometimes it takes a long while to load a page.

    This is how the headers look: (Uncached)

    HTTP/1.1 200 OK
    Date: Thu, 02 Jun 2011 20:17:03 GMT
    Server: Apache
    Vary: Accept-Encoding,Cookie
    Set-Cookie: announcerRevision=14; expires=Fri, 01-Jun-2012 20:17:03 GMT; path=/
    Set-Cookie: toggle-experience=show; expires=Fri, 01-Jun-2012 20:17:03 GMT; path=/
    Set-Cookie: wassup=OGQyNzUATsaGMGSDGSMZgsmgsdGMweTt; expires=Thu, 02-Jun-2011 21:07:04 GMT; path=/
    X-Pingback: http://mysite.com/xmlrpc.php
    Link: <http://mysite.com/?p=12436>; rel=shortlink
    Keep-Alive: timeout=5
    Connection: Keep-Alive
    Transfer-Encoding: chunked
    Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

    And here's a cached header (using php)

    HTTP/1.1 200 OK
    Date: Thu, 02 Jun 2011 19:54:32 GMT
    Server: Apache
    Vary: Accept-Encoding,Cookie
    Cache-Control: max-age=3, must-revalidate
    WP-Super-Cache: Served supercache file from PHP
    Content-Encoding: gzip
    Content-Length: 6211
    Last-Modified: Thu, 02 Jun 2011 19:25:01 GMT
    Keep-Alive: timeout=5
    Connection: Keep-Alive
    Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

    any expert able to tell if any of the code above would cause issues with google? I have set redirect on missing / to do 301 to the page to avoid dupe content to.

    Any ideas would be welcome.

    I don't know why your site went down in pagerank but it won't be Supercache. Sorry.
