Question about my site

    Hi There,

    Wonder if some of you guys could give me some advice here.

    I have the following website:

    http://www.cape-town-tours.info/

    Now, my problem is I have applied an SEO strategy to this site for the past 2 years and it simply does not want to rank for the keywords: "cape town tours"

    Now my question is, could it be in the sandbox or maybe be banned, cause it is indexed but is shows up nowhere.

    Your help will be much appreciated.

    Your site is not in sandbox that is for sure, since a check for rank returned this

    1 ~ 100
    google.com
    Country: USA No, it is not listed between 1 ~ 100 rankings
    Since you are also not listed in top 100, You need work harder on SERP.
    ...

    101 ~ 200
    google.com
    Country: USA rank # 174 ( http://www.cape-town-tours.info/ )


    Your site could have had the sandbox effect earlier, but now it is showing up in serp results, just jack up your SEO methods once again and it should give it the final push :D
    All the best

    You should build some quality backlinks and you will rank better.

    fix:-
    1. your robots txt. file
    2. the broken verification tag
    3. de-optimise the site (too keyword rich)
    4. run xenu slueth to pick out the broken links
    5. contact us and we'll get you #1 with at least 450 quality backlinks ;-)
