site ?

Sorry for the late reply, Garg Ji.

I have noticed some very interesting results during this time
regarding google search.
1. If you keep on searching on google again and again, the desired
results start coming towards the top.
2. efi results which were appearing in twenties earlier, they have now
started appearing in top ten in my searches.
3. When searching again for "Codonopsis viridis". No results from efi
appeared while, FoI was at no. 2.
4. I searched for Cotoneaster microphyllus. No results from efi in
first 50 results, while FoI was at top. We have lots of photographs on
this plant and extensive discussion by  Chris Chadwell ji.
5.  Some websites pay money to google for showing their page at the
top as advertisement. While, tags or crawlers added in the webpage
make the page more searchable.
6. When a same thing is searched again and again, search results for
that keyword becomes more prominent. This is automatically done by the
google servers.
7. One more example: If you search for "Govt College Shimla", you will
get results for Centre of Excellence, Government, Sanjauli. at No.1
position, while there are more than 15 colleges in Shimla. This is
happening as our computer operator keep on experimenting something new
with the website.

Now, the question is, what can be done to improve the search results
for efloraofindia.

Regards
