This is the same when I am searching for keywords such as "pokemon rpg".



What happened? Also, I used to be Page 1 when "pokemon rpg" was searched.

Now the "/login.php" page is on page 7 and the index page is nowhere to be found when searching 'Pokemon RPG'. Can anyone take a look at my website and help me find the problem?

Thank you.

    Google decide which page is better to rank higher.
    Ranking an inner page is always easier than rank the homepage.
    Have you created many inbound links with your login url ?

      ALWAYS? is that so..

      OP, i think that google believes that the people coming into your website want to 'log on' more so then they want to go to your homepage.

      when i search for pokemon rpg, i want to play right away!

      You can no-index your log-in page.

    Off-page SEO should be a continuous process in order for you to remain on page 1 because when you laps your surpass you which seems to have happened with you webpage. This includes back-links, social media promotions etc.

    Ignore all the useless advice given above.

    It's most likely 1 of 2 things:

    1) an algorithmic penalty targeting the homepage. check external backlinks for spam etc.
    2) google toying around with the rankings, which isn't likely since you've dropped from page 1 to nowhere.

    Just got back from a #BrightonSEO. I was given room 404 in the hotel I stayed at. Couldn’t find it anywhere!
