My first problem is a confirmation really, can anyone confirm the monthly searches for the keyword "Gelato Sundae" becuase I should be getting close to 200 hits minimum from google and I'm getting one maybe two a day. According to google keyword tool, under exact, this keyword, "Gelato Sundae", get 90k a month and I'm in 5th according to my google serp check of googles database based on my location, 7 on the west coast and a program called Traffic Travis (I am using a 60 day free trial) says I am in position 1. So if anyone could confirm that amount of searches that would be appreciated. That was problem one. Serp rank isn't a big deal because it will vary over time during progression. My second problem is under google analytics, my site shows no % of progression either up or down, and there are 5 other sites on my account that show correctly. I've double and triple checked the info and nothing is wrong. My third problem is backlinks, I have multiple alexa and yahoo backlinks but no google backlinks when I am positive that I should. I've used multiple checkers to find which ones I have and many are content related, high pr, low obl and I am the only link on some, so I don't know why I don't have any google backlinks. If you have any suggestions other than my problems I am always open to learning and change. If this wasn't the right place to post I'm sorry about that, I didn't see a place specifically for problems off the bat, just general discussion and specific areas. url: www(dot)gelatosundae(dot)net
Actually you are in a good rank showing number 5 and your website is functioning pretty well but may I have a screen shot of the keyword tool that shows 200 searches. the searches data is not accurate as u might think 2/day is 60 per month but most people would go for the first link which is WIkipedia because they are not interested to cook the thing so change the keyword on the home page from "Delicious Food Recipes" into something else or add a page to your WP and name the title "what is gelato sundae" that might sound like a link someone wanna click, also add a page "how to cook/prepare or whatever gelato sundae". if you get what I mean, your problem now is words game with the users not with Google, most of the pages that are higher then you have small thumbs of vids because they include vids on their pages and stuff like that, beat them, I know u can do it!
