>Our corporate site currently houses our store. Business has been
disappointing. I have been discussing the issue of setting up a
seperate site for the store with my boss. Do you think we would
attract more business that way? The corporate site is about
commercial aquarium construction and the store sells books and
multimedia related to aquarium keeping and marine science topics.

"Sales" is a pretty broad question, but if you're wondering
whether you would get more visitors from search engines by
creating a separate site, the answer is no and yes.

No, I'd first get rid of the frames that make it hard for the
SEs to index the site, and then replace the graphics with
text links, giving the SEs even more to index.

Or Yes, go with a separate site, if they won't let you redesign
the whole site. One way or another, the frames really should
be eliminated...
