Probably one of the most important things to have when starting a new site is a high search engine ranking. With most sites, search engines can account for up to 95% of traffic. If you're not placed in the first three pages, it's unlikely you'll get any traffic from a search engine. Google is one of the fastest growing search engines, a high listing here will guarantee you traffic. Google's results are also used by Yahoo when it's finished displaying its own results. To get a high ranking in google you need to design your pages and promotional methods around it.

Jump to PostI have come to the point in which I don't worry about it anymore! It goes up and down and whatever! It's happening to others I know, it's just THEM, and I just let it be.
Thanks everyone for all your input. :confused:
