    I have 2 wordpress blogs on different domains and on different IPs, they both have the same plugins and I post 4 times a week to each blog, however only 1 shows up when I search google, using keywords digital signage or LCD enclosures.

    www. lcdenclosure dot co dot uk / news this shows up within 1 hour of posting new article.

    www. lcdtvenclosure dot com / blog doesn't show up at all!

    I am using the plugin sociable and xml - sitemaps.

    Can anyone explian how 1 shows up when they both should show up? And how I can get both to show up in google blog search.

    I have built backlinks to the blog using ezine articles and blogger posts. Any insight from an expert would be really helpful.

    Your www. lcdtvenclosure dot com is indexed by google. Check it by typing "site:www.lcdtvenclosure.com" and you'll find around 121 pages indexed in google. It's just not getting good ranking for those keywords that you've typed.

    Yes, build more links with targeted keywords in the link. When possible, use the alt tag - alternate text - tag in the links. That will help google know "what" your site is about.

    Not only the backlinks, You should build the backlinks with the anchor text. For example if your website is related to games, then while making a hyperlink to your website you should use the words containing the word 'Games."
    Building backlinks should be towards quality oriented and not the quantity. :)
