If you are not making use of any automated SEO tool that can be making biased assignments to match your site with the desired keywords, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Has anyone else noticed anything similar? You can always get the Google Toolbar add-in for Firefox and see what your Google Page Rank is. I know Google announced that they were going to be moving to a context based search offering unique search results and would be making major changes this month. The only way to make sure you always hit high is to make sure you're relevant and your site is responsive and adheres to W3C standards. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
