Question about Google Search Results

[scamper]

I have a question regarding google search results.

I have a website www.911signalusa.com when you type this into google search box the URL comes up repeatedly.  I have several competitors here is one of them www.emergencycity.com when you type in their name it only come up as the first result.

How did our SEO guys make this happen?  I have another site tha when we type in the URL it only comes up as the first result.

However when you do site:www.------.com All of these site are indexed in Google.

It is not causing any problem we knoe of but it appears to me that our 1 site has it better?  Or is it that maybe there are very minimal links to the site?

Thank you for your time and consideration in answering my quesiton.

Thank you for your valued responses.  I will learn a lot here.

I apologize for the generic site:www.-----.com

I should have said site:911signalusa.com

This was my first post.  Thank you for your time in responding to my question.

I think you made great points here. I believe someone told him that this was the SEO(s) doing something cool. - I am willing to be wrong. 
I did like      "May I ask you what kind of query did you use? I mean... www.------.com is not a logical query, is it?"

Hi!

I must admit that I am not sure if I have understood correctly your question...

So, you are saying that when you do a search with your domain name, you see Google presenting you all URLs from your site. That is normal, because Google is offering you exactly what you were looking for with that search: pages your site domain name. That means that Google presents you also pages from others sites than your, but which have your domain name present in their content.

In the case of your competitor, Google present a different kind of Search Result Page. In this version www.emergencycity.com appears as first and with six sitelinks. This is also normal and usually it is a good health signal, because it means that Google present it as an online entity and with a better organized snippet (home page + the 6 pages it considers are the most used thanks to its own knowledge base).

After that snippet, you see all sites that have your competitor's domain name in their content.

And now it comes the part that I did not understand:

However when you do site:www.------.com All of these site are indexed in Google.

May I ask you what kind of query did you use? I mean... www.------.com is not a logical query, is it?

Finally, with a very fast view on Open Site Explorer, your site and emergencycity.com seem almost identical, but - even if your site has a better Home Page Page Authority and a bunch of unique domain names linking than emergencycity.com, the DA (Domain Authority) of your competitors is higher, because it owns backlinks also for some of its internal pages. Personally I would suggest you to not limit the linking to your site only to the homepage, but also to other pages in order to have a better DA, a better link equity distribution and offering Googlebot more entrances for crawling your site.

Hello Scamper

Sorry, it's not some cool SEO trick. (At least does not appear so to me.) I believe it is due to two things: First, they have affiliates (publishers) that seem to be selling for them and by virtue of that putting content with their name on it on the web, and second, they seem to have done more link building with sites that publish. Now, if you want to test if your SEO team is doing this on purpose, try this: remove www as the sub domain and search on 911signalusa.com - you will get a different result. To see all your pages that are indexed on Google, put in Site:911signalusa.com.

I was just looking at basic content, etc. and the first thing I looked at was a dash light. I cracked up when read the product description: _We understand that sometimes, you just need that one compact dash light to add to your collection._OK, that proves it...cops can be wierd!

Hope that helps a bit,

Robert
