I have a business, which we will call Jims Turbo Shop (not the real name). Another shop has the name Bills Turbo Shop. My website utilizes good Meta tags, utilizes various search engine optimization, reviewed by a web programmer and website is in order.
My question is: How come when you search for my website Jims Turbo Shop, the first listing in Google is Bills Turbo Shop? Actually, my listing doesnt show up until about 7 or 8 listings down. I viewed Bills Turbo Shop web page source, and there is nothing special in the meta tags or such.
Pretty much any combination of ANY Turbo Shop, shows Bills Turbo Shop first in Google. How does this happen? Even if it is paid advertising, does first place listing go to the highest bidder? I dont mind paying for advertising with Google, but if he is paying too, will mine be first or second? Suppose then there is a third or fourth turbo shop that wants to advertise, will mine drop down?
Can someone explain how this works and what do I need to do to get a better listing with Google?
