SEO!
Dosent Google primarily drive its search results on how much a given site is linked?
AKA a part of SEO
Companies just do SEO for other websites…
It has a lot to do with you linking to other websites and them linking back to you…Adding links to your site on facebook and such help…keywords on the page…There is a whole science behind it…
Its Science
Keywords in your site.
Don’t type in stuff like:
Car, car dealer, dealership,
Use:
WNY car dealer, Buffalo Car Dealer, Western New York Car Dealer,
add a robots.txt to your site, and include a sitemap. The best place to generate a sitemap is here. Then start setting yourself up with Google webmaster tools. It’s pretty self explanatory from inside there. I’m self taught and I’ve been shown most of this from a buddy of mine. So read up on it some more also. It’s worked for me though. first two sites are mine

Google ranks your site based on key words, sites that link to you, your links to other sites, how optimized your pages are( http://yoursite.com/auto/cleaning is better than http://yoursite.com/service.php?id=3 ), etc.
