The more popular the search term, the higher ranked you will get due to returned search results and page hits. For a small site like mine that can be found easily with these terms: Crafty SE Crafty Chess Crafty Computer Computer Chess Crafty Installer It is amazing that it is ranked as high as it is, but that is in large part to the work I have done researching the sites ahead of me. There is nothing I can do about page hits. There are always going to be sites that get more hits so I will never be #1 in all terms. Peter
