    Hi,

    We launched a site http://www.ibizacakes.com/ around 6 months back. It's a very basic normal HTML site and aims for top spot on google for the keywords "Ibiza Cakes". The keyword is not a hard-fought one, and the site should have made it to top 10 position quite fast.

    However, the site has never moved from 48-55 ranks in google.com. I was wondering if someone could identify what's wrong with the site. We already have first two positions for another site of ours, and both are also hosted on the same IP as this site, can that be a reason?

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Google only shows 2 backlinks...Keep building content and exchanging links/submitting to directories etc

    Takes time and patience but you'll get there if you work abit each day
    Best of luck
    Cheers

    More inbound links, more inbound links, more inbound links.....

    Everything else looks ok...except maybe editing your .htaccess file to reflect either //www.yoursite.com or //yoursite.com.

    You have your homepage resolving with four different URLs
    //www.yoursite.com
    //yoursite.com
    //www.yoursite.com/index.htm
    //yoursite.com/index.htm

    wow yummy

    but it is kind of hard to read since the color of the background and the font is almost the same

    Change title to Ibiza Cakes
    from Ibiza Cakes : Weddings, Birthdays, anniversaries and corporate events
    change h1 tag to h2 and change it from
    Welcome to Ibiza's finest!
    to Ibiza Cakes.
    Also get some backlinks with anchor text as Ibiza Cakes.
