Search Engine Wars

Filed under: Technology — Scott King at 9:44 am on Monday, August 28, 2006

    I, for the life of me, cannot get google to truly like my website. My goal is to have it so that when you search for “Scott King” you get my site, but all that comes up are Coretta Scott King related sites or news articles.
     The same problem is happening with Yahoo, but oddly enough, if you search “scott king” with MSN, my site is one of the tops on the list, same with some other smaller search engines.
   I’ve tried everything I can think of to appease the google gods. I’ve added a site map, meta tags, and everything else you’re supposed to do, but it’s not helped.
    Don’t get me wrong. I do get hits from google but they aren’t for “Scott King” which is what I want. Some of the odd key word searches that have lead to my site include the following…
Yahoo: haley joel osment has strict dad
Google: snakesonplanephone
Google: Emily VanCamp and New Mexico
Google: Wrestler fight resume official
Yahoo: SNL Cast Change
Google: The OC and Death
Google: music from larry the cable guy/health inspector
Google: bloody tampon
Google: clerks II box office gross
Yahoo: spiderman 3 venom costume
Google: Ocean City memories
Google: Warren Ellis and No Thanks
