    Even if google would place their youtube site on 1st position, i dont see why wouldn't you get the second position. Are you sure this happens in all datacenters?

    My google rankings have been a daily roller-coaster ride lately. Some days I'm #1 for a keyword, other days I'm out of the index for it, and on the third I'm #3.... there seems to be no rhyme or reason for the changes - but I've heard a lot of other people complaining about this as well. How long have you been out of the SERPS? I've started treating the DP Keyword tracker tool more like my stock results - I no longer check daily, but home for long term improvements....

    I believe the keyword here is web traffic. YouTube have millions of users and if they would like to start something new, usually they will beat their competitors within weeks

    I don't think this is a case of Google manually putting their stuff first. The problem is that YouTube has millions of users who link to their products.

    I've worried about this myself before. With Google entering into so many new markets, they're sure to be competing with most other Websites. It's not going to make for a pretty picture.

    If you learnt to spell better it would be easier to understand you.

    If your complaining that YouTube's new venture is ranked ahead of you, i have a simple question to ask you. How many million users do you have daily?

    you tube vidoes get viewed by millions everyday so obviously youtube is going to ranked first because it has more traffic & a more backlinks etc

    You try to focus on the content of your website and improve it .. and you can hope that keyword can again gain 1 rank . . .
