    Please forgive me if Im using the wrong words here etc as Im very new to all this!:confused:

    I have had my new webite up and running now for about one month and an also running some ads on Goggle adwords. www.rapalloav.co.nz

    What Im trying to understand is how come my website never shows in the main listing search on the left hand side of the Google page?
    Every entry that was placed about my products are there but never "My Website" shows in all the listings? The only way my website will show is if I put in "rapalloav"

    Has this got something to do with the first page my wesite opens on?:confused:

    Thanks in advance.

    It looks like Google has only started searching/retrieving your pages this month. Give it another couple of weeks and see. If you do a "site:http://www.rapalloav.co.nz" command in Google, you only have your "front pages" indexed, it looks like, and Google only picked them up on September 2nd. So, Google hasn't indexed your products page yet...

    Have you thought of signing up for Google Webmaster Central? It might help.

    You are probably in the google "sandbox"

    Using adwords or adsense will have no affect on your search engine ranking.

    Your site is very new. It takes dedication and good SEO practices to get listed in the search engines naturally.
