Default Google problems - 07-30-2006 , 05:32 PM






Hi

I posted before re my site www.chi-mania.co.uk and got some great advice re
flash page etc.

The site is doing really well on the search engines, with high positions in
MSN and Yahoo for relevant terms.

However, I cannot seem to make any progress with Google, as even if you
search for Chi-mania in the UK, the position is on page 3!! Despite it being
No2 last week!

The site does not even appear for searches such as "clothes for chihuahuas"
which brings good results on the other engines.

Would really appreciate some advice, or is it just a question of patience
with Google?

Thanks

I would probably not be searching Google for: Chi-mania
I would probably use: chihuahua clothing
(as that seems to be what your site is about)

Results 1 - 10 of about 1,340,000 for Chihuahua clothing. (0.13 seconds)

(Didn't see you in the first 60 or so pages)

Your keywords are too common.

I agree re search terms, and chihuahua clothing brings up good results on
MSN and Yahoo.

Thought Google based results on text rather than keywords, and many of the
sites in the first few pages seem to have no relevence to Chihuahua
Clothing!

Also, surely if chi-mania is entered as a search, the page should appear
near the top, as it was a few days ago?

Thanks again for the advice
