The competition

    I was looking at the number one result for "computer repair" in Google which is www.homecomputerambulance.com

    I cannot for the life of me figure WHY it is achieving a no.1 position. I do see that it has great back links from hostingireland but after that I fail to see how it is doing so well. The competition for this phrase is very high.

    Can anyone spot what is giving such great results?

    It has a page rank of 3, good choice of keywords, uses the title tag like a keyword tag, content matching keywords, probably has some good backlinks also.

    The title was something i looked at also

    "Computer Repair Dublin PC Computer Repairs Service:PC Doctor Dublin Repair north Computer Repair Dublin PC Computer Repairs Dell"

    Quite long, with repeated words using singular and plural. I havent seem many titles in this fashion.

    You might want to consider using a different image on your page. I don't know who used the 'Help' button first, but both of you using it looks naff.

    Aye, It's used on a lot of repair sites I have been! I've been meaning to change it for a long time. Will do.
