Strange Google Ranking

jnarowski · #1 (**permalink**) 11-21-2004, 06:44 PM

I am absolutely and utterly confused. I have optimized my page www.amishrecipes.net, in almost every way mentioned by this site and many many others -> title, meta description, anchor tags, keywords, heading tags etc for Amish recipes but my page got indexed and ranked 380th for Amish recipes keyword???????? Is there something inherently wrong with my page because I checked through about 100 of them and none of them had at even 1/2 the criteria "google likes??" I don’t understand what I did to get so penalized... Someone please help...

Thanks

How old is your website - you may still be in the sandbox.....?

Keep building good content and grow - it will take a couple months to come out of "the sandbox" (a short period of time before google trust you) age (infant)
