Daily Obsessive Google Rank Check:
Pool Cues: #1
Pool Cue: #1

Now you would think that a site that is ranked well on most things billiards related would rank on the term “billiards”, but try as I might, I can’t crack that damn egg.  A part of me knows the primary reason for this is competition.  Billiards is a really competitive keyword and most of the page one sites have the term in their domain.

What’s more frustrating though is the fact that at one point I was able to get the site all the way up to #7 before Google did their semi-regular “Google Shuffle” and knocked us back down into the mid 30s.  Sure, its a lot better than not ranking in the Top 100 (which is where we were six months ago), but I do want to be back in the Top 10.
