My organic search results are great, but not my ranking. Why?

Thanks again. I am not eager to push any single product at this point. We are planning on building some strategic landing pages over the next few months and I will create some links to those once they are created.

With a couple of hundred pages it does not seem realistic of me to suggest this. If you have a product which you are eager to push up, then get links for it. Get links for your home page and security bond section. It is feasible and it will have possitive effect down the road.
I work with a site with 15000 pages with similar content, close to the approach of suretegrity.com. The main part of the content is the same, but with a variable. I actually use 4+ variables. Most of my english pages are still in the index little of the have any page rank at all, but they rank. I got no rank for them in 2 years time, so I wouldn't hold my breath for PR on those if I were you :).

Thanks Dave

We have hundreds of individual product pages and within the next 6 months that number will jump to a little over 2,000. Are you suggesting that I attempt to get some links to the individual product pages?

Well, you site is still quite young. You got a PR1 on the homepage, which is not enough to pass any pagerank to your product page. If you have a couple of decent links to the product page you should see the difference with the next pagerank update. It takes time (and backlinks). I would not worry at all about the PageRank of this page. It seems it is ranking very well for this niche query.

First let me qualify my response........ I am no expert, but have done some of this stuff. It has been my experience that it takes a while for things to get "traction". It seems like some sights get "ranked" more quickly and some do not.... kinda random. I usually dont get very excited about seeing good placements for a little while. Hope that helps a little. Dave

Recent Algorithm Update Impact on Rankings
I've read that the most recent algorithm update by Google is targeting dodgy links. I have a client's website who within the last few days has been smashed out of of top positions for the most competitive keywords (and many others). I'm worried that the site has been penalised, however I can't understand why it would be. The site only has 11 domains linking to it (65 links total) and a lot of these links are coming from the same websites that link to all of our other web clients and none of them have experienced this sudden and significant drop in rankings. Does anyone know if Google is targeting a specific type of site, or how I can determine if my client's website has been penalised? I've not made any significant changes recently to the site's content or meta data, however rankings have remained steady for months now. It just seemed to happen overnight that they dropped off everything (eg. middle of page 2 to page 8 of search results for some of the better keywords) Thank you in advance for any assistance!

Can someone explain the attached rankings?
I just don't understand how we can have a long list of 1's and 2's in google, but in Yahoo and Bing, some are close, some are in the 20's and some are not even in the top 50. Is there something that Yahoo and Bing care about, that google doesn't? I know about the meta language being more important for Yahoo and Bing than Google, so I added that. There's nothing I can do about the domain age, which I know is important to Yahoo and Bing. Is there anything else? thanks, Ruben [URL]]([URL=http://imgur.com/Vem594l][IMG]http://i.imgur.com/Vem594l.jpg[/IMG][/URL]) [IMG]](http://i.imgur.com/Vem594l.jpg[/IMG])

Ranking drops over weekend
Hi all, Has anyone noticed any ranking changes over the weekend? I've noticed an almost uniform drop of a few positions across almost all of my chosen phrases. Nothing major has occurred on our site, no messages in webmaster tools. An analysis of our competitors positions (which we track the top 10) doesn't reveal any clues. Cheers Aran

How do I get the expanded results in a Google search?
I notice for certain site (ex: mint.com) that when I search, the top result has a very detailed view with options to click to different subsections of the site. However for my site, even though we're consistently the top result for our branded terms, the result is still only a single line item. How do I adjust this?
