I have a question about Google search results. I want to know how you
figure out which site shows up first on there listings. For example
when I type the search phrase ?Appalachian trail? then it comes up
with tons of listings. The first one on the list is ?Appalachian Trail
Home Page - Appalachian Trail?.

I know for a fact that I get a lot more hits then this site and I am
listed way down on page 6. Here are the following stats for my site
for my site www.whiteblaze.net

Dailey averages: 
Hits = 118215 
Files = 69916 
Pages = 2312 
Visits = 661 

Monthly Averages are: 
Hits = 2249347 
Files = 1328404 
Pages = 50658 
Visits = 17041 

This is a lot of hits and visits. I should be number one on the list.
How did you figure your listing and how they are listed?

How can I get mine to list as on the first on the list because I know
I should be. Because I get the most hits/visits of all?

Actually "we" are not Google, we're Google Answers. We're independent
Research contractors. We're not Google employees, nor do we speak
officially for Google. We can offer observations about Google
PageRank, the search results, and the Guidelines but we're not
insiders, privy to special information or able to influence the way
results are determined.

Knowing this, do you still wish an analysis, or would you prefer to
write Google directly at:

No I do not need to have this question answered or clarified if you
can not answer for Google. If I knew you were not Google or could not
help me I would not have asked the question. Do I still get charged
the $2.00 since I got no help?

There is a $0.50 listing fee, however you won't be charged the $2.00
for an Answer if you close the question.
