Weird Ranking Puzzle
- SEO |
I put together a site about five weeks ago for a very small niche with a squishy front page. Right now, for some reason, I'm ranking #109. Let's call it wwdub.cheap-blue-widgets dot net.
Okay, sometimes sites just don't work. But, here's what's weird. For an "allintitle: cheap blue widgets" search, I'm #2. #1 and #3 are on page 1, and I'm on page 11. It's exactly the same for "allinurl: cheap blue widgets": I'm #2, while #1 and #3 are on page 1.
I'm also ranking really well for all kinds of long tail keywords and just random assortments of words. It's like I'm ranking for everything except my main keyword.
Does anyone have any idea what might be going on? It's the only page I have that's not in the top two pages, and by every metric, should be doing much better than it is.
