Hi Barry-

We are not ranking as well for Nashville, but we follow the same formula for links/layout in both markets. We don't have any inbound links to property pages (example: http://clickscape.com/9753-Palmeston-Place-0-Johns-Creek-GA), but we rank on the first page of SERPs in Atlanta for these similar long-tailed terms due to site architecture/navigation. The formula is not working in Nashville and I was just curious if there was a reason why that might be.

Also, you are correct. The search volume in Nashville is about 70% of the volume in Atlanta so that definitely plays a role.

Good afternoon!

We have a large real estate site with over 400,000 urls. We do pretty well with long-tailed search terms (like addresses--- 123 Main Street, Atlanta GA) so we get a decent amount of traffic (3,500-4,000 uniques a day). 2 months ago we opened up in a new market (Nashville) and hoped to see similar traffic for that market after a few of months, but so far we haven't. In fact, we only get about 200 visits a day. I can't seem to figure out why it's taking so long for us to generate similar traffic in Nashville that we see in Atlanta. All of the Nashville properties are in our sitemap and are being indexed by Google. Any ideas why we aren't seeing similar effects?Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
