Google Ranking Mystery

[bbott]

My website eWebDevelopment.net is relatively new (has been around for 2-3 months). As of now, I have a PR4, 1,370 google results for my company keyword "ewebdevelopment", and 11 backlinks. I anticipate a ton more once google does it's dance this month. Anyways... my question is....

When I type in ALLINTEXT:, ALLINANCHOR:, and ALLINTITLE: and enter some of my target keywords my website appears within the top 20 results out of millions for all these specific search techniques. This must mean my site is optimized well, correct? But, how come my site is nowhere to be found on google in terms of ranking well? I am not within the top 1,000 search results for any of my keywords. Does PR and backlinks have that great of an effect on rankings?

Its only my observation, not facts. Google updates one property, like links, or PR, or SERP each update, then uses tthe new properties to evaluate the site on the next update.

Be patient. I think we get an update in about two weeks. That should do the trick.
