  Helmut Berié: Google will only show results it believes to be good enough to get a click for a particular kw. Your page isn`t good enough (for that kw) in that regard

  Pavi Nan: send me the list of url i will let you to know if those page rank enough for google or not

  Anthony Simons: Have you checked the position of this page relative to the keyword?

  Darren Andrew Johnson: Yeah it doesn`t rank for the keywords at all. I`ll be honest I haven`t done seo for years and after watching video after video I`m seeing where I`ve possibly gone wrong.

  Michael Martinez: Any information Google returns in a "site:" search comes from its index. It`s not going to magically show you information information it doesn`t have.But a "site:" search isn`t necessarily going to show you everything Google knows about.If a page doesn`t appear in a normal search, that means it wasn`t selected by the algorithms as relevant or useful for that query. It doesn`t mean the page is not indexed.
