Regardless of the specific reasons, the underlying issue is that, for whatever reason, Google sees the homepage as a better result to show folks searching for [car battery] than the car battery page.
I'm seeing a slightly higher page authority for the home page (23 vs. 20 for /car-battery which, granted, isn't all that big of a difference). The total link count is quite different, though—the home page has 68, and /car-battery has 22.
Also, it looks like the content on /car-batter is pretty thin, and doesn't seem like it'd be especially helpful for someone shopping for a car battery. The interface on that page is much less intuitive, as well,
I can't be 100% positive, but if I had to guess I'd say that Google is preferentially serving the home page because it's a better-developed page with a stronger link profile. If you'd like the category-specific pages to be ranking instead, I'd suggest creating a better user experience on those pages and attracting some links to them.
Make sense?

https://www.google.co.in/?gws_rd=ssl#q=car+battery&start=10

but we have a page for www.powerwale.com/car-battery (specifically meant for car battery)
Pls suggest wht should I do..

Hi Abdul,
Can you give a little more information regarding the circumstances you are seeing this? If it is any consolation, when I perform a search for the term [inverter battery] in Google.co.in, I see your inverter battery page at the bottom of page 3 (I do not see your homepage ranking). I am performing the search from the UK, with Chrome in an incognito tab.
Adam.

New Rules Keywords of Google Panda
Hello Everyone,.. I want to ask regarding my confusion of Keywords. How does search engine see the keywords? and find the website that is matched with the keywords. So this is what I mean: When I type keywords "luxury dog clothes" at google, then the website which is showed up, is nothing using keyword of "luxury dog clothes". But then appeared websites which in bold words are "designer dog clothes", "dog clothes", "designer dog" . Can anyone please help me to explain why Google shows the website which is not identical matched keywords "luxury dog clothes" that I am looking for? I read at the beginer guide SEO, that the good keywords must be placed at the front of the title then in the body description, placed no more than 2 times. But in fact, for the example above, there is nothing words of "luxury dog clothes" placed at the title and in the body description. This makes me very confuse how to determine the right keyword for mine, especially the long tail keywords. Thank you everyone. Hopefully you all can help me to explain as I am a newbie at SEO.

Google search results
Does Google always return the results of a search query in a broad based fashion if the searcher does not use brackets or quote marks?

How does Google decide which type of search results to display? Thanks for any insight. I

Is there a way to tell google to ignore keywords in Webmaster Tools?
In Google Webmaster Tools for my site, the #1 keyword is "ago", probably because we format datestamps like "3 days ago". Is there a way to tell google not to count the word "ago"? Seems like a common enough word that google should be ignoring it. I have a feeling the answer to my first question is "NO!", so my follow-up question is: is there a best practice for formatting dates for SEO? Thanks!
