Put more description words in the site’s meta tags. For example: design, decoration, etc.

Side note, you may want to consider a shorter URL as well.

Have you built this yourself? And did you include the Meta tags in the html?

Try this site just to see what it comes up with. It should tell you if you need to change or add anything. If you don’t have the Meta tags, that could be part of the problem.

Some of this has been captured by others

I have had success with:

1) Putting keywords in the page name
2) Using META keywords
3) Using META description
4) Using "H1" tags

And of course as others have mentioned (the harder part) getting a QUANTITY of inbound links from other QUALITY sites.

go to below resource and compare the top ten site with your site. if you want to be at the top you have to beat those guys. is your site similar to anyone of them? the first thing to do to be at the top is to analyze your competitor.

We attempted without much success in stating that:

1. Unless you have a branded domain name or slogan, and in your case, "Interior Inspirations by Julie Gelsey" is certainly not a major recognizable brand and it should therefore be removed in the <title> and replaced with the services you are providing. An improved <title> metatag would be "Interior Architecture Designer, Custom Decorator – Manhattan Beach, Palos Verdes, Hermosa, etc."

2. And as we have mentioned earlier, there is only a 15 word limitation in plural and compound variations in the <keywords> metatag. Unfortunately, your current entries are duplicative and repeated over and over again. This is spamdexing at its worst.

Your current <keywords> metatag appears as follows:

<meta name="keywords" content="Interior Design Manhattan Beach, Interior Design Palos Verdes Estates, Interior Design South Bay, Interior Decorators Manhattan Beach, Interior Decorators Palos Verdes Estates, Interior Decorators South Bay, Tomaro Architecture, Raju Chhabria, Delphi Development Hermosa Beach, Ca, Manhattan Beach Interior Designers, Palos Verdes Estates Interiro Designers, Julie Gelsey Michigan State University, Tuscan Village Ranchos Palos Verdes, Ann Sacks Tile, Materials Marketing, 3001 The Strand Hermosa Beach, Interior Design Hermosa Beach, Interior Decorators Hermosa Beach, Julie, julie, juli, july, Gelsey, Gelsy, Gelsi, Gina, MacDaniel, McDaniel, Geena, Julie Gelsey, Gina McDaniels, UCLA, FIDER, F.I.D.E.R., interior inspirations, interiorinspirationsbyjuliegelsey, Interior Inspiriaation, Interior Inspirations, Interior Inspiration, Palos Verdes, Palo Verde, South Bay, Sout, Bay, Redondo Beach, Redondo, Manhattan Beach, Manattan, Hermosa Beach, Hermosa, Trump, Donald Trump, Italian Villa, Tile Work, Tile projects, Bath, Bathroom, Living Room, Luxurious, Easy, Interior Design, Archtiectural, Architecture, California, Julie, Gelsey, Nook, Furniture, Exclusive, Louie Tomaro, Chhabria, Chhabbria, University of Michigan, Principal Designer BS Michigan State University, MFA University of California Los Angeles Julie is the Principal Designer and owner of Interior Inspirations.

If you cut out your bio, remove unnecessary copy that does not state clearly what you are offering, the following entries do cut to the chase and show exactly who you are and what you are offering as follows:

<meta name="keywords" content="Interior, Design, Decorators, Manhattan Beach, Palos Verdes Estates, South Bay, Tomaro Architecture, Raju Chhabria, Delphi Hermosa, Ann Sacks Tile">

The following article will prove helpful to you in streamlining your SEO metatags in order to attract more Net traffic by higher search engine placement.

The most effective way to advertise on the Internet is
to first set up a website and publish its domain name
on major search directories such as Google.com,
Yahoo.com [at http://www.google.com/addurl/?...... and
MSN.com since 85% of Internet shoppers rely on these
search directories to provide them with goods and
services. In a sense, these search directories are a
very large Internet Yellow Pages.

Nevertheless, should your website or opening webpage
fail to contain "generic" keywords, then anyone using
such "generic" queries will not be able to discover
your website. Your domain name [URL] of your website,
in a sense, will be invisible, undiscoverable.

You may want to consider some simple algorithms which,
when observed and committed in designing of a website
with placement of various critical metatags that can
surely achieve a high search engine presence and
increase Internet traffic to your website. These
metatag strategies work well with published webpages
at Google and Yahoo.

Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based
website, make sure to fill-in the property entries
such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing
to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can
be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the
Internet audience and their incoming setup. For
example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages
take too long to load up and therefore analog users
will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the
Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL
lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. So
before designing a pure Flash websitge, ask the simple
question, "Who’s my end user – is he on dialup or
DSL?" And if you had to choose between these two users
for maximum marketability, then select analog users
since 80% of most resident users are still analog
Internet subscribers and pure HTML designed webpages
is best for them.

A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text,
is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit
the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a
graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.

Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots
are unable to properly classify textual material.

Placement of Metatags:

A ranking or search order does take place with Google
and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which
should consist of no more than 60 characters separated
by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic terms, the goods and services, followed by a location from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state. The placement of a domain name which is not generic within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your
domain name is a major recognizable brand name.

The second metatag is the "Description" which is
usually up to 41 words to form a complete paragraph which
best describes one’s goods and services. It is not merely a list.

And the very last category – "Keywords" are also
somewhat limited to 15 words which can be plural
and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries
which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which
is defined as the loading, and submission of
repetitive words into a particular metatag category.
"Spamdexing" when discovered on a webpage and reported
to Google’s spamreport.com can result in the
elimination of your website from their search
directory.

Here’s an example of a very highly-placed website on
Google.com: Begin with the very "generic" search query
"sandwiches downtown los angeles," taking note to not
abbreviate Los Angeles to "LA" and of course, leave
out the parentheses ("). It will bring up some 2.4
million+ search results. Check out where "Nazos.net"
is ranked. It’s on the SECOND FRONT [ranked 15]!
Again, Nazos.net’s high web presence was achieved by
proper web design and placement of relevant metatags
according to Google’s publication guidelines.

Good luck!
