There is a lot more to real SEO than the basics.
It has a lot to do with the actual content, how you write it. Placements
on the page etc.
Looking at the source code you have a lot before the any actual content.
You also do not have many inbound links from quality sites.
That is just for starters.

I've been trying to get my site to appear in Google when searching for
certain key words, and I seem to be getting stumped - I'm showing up
on page 2, not near the top. Posts by myself or friends about the
site appear before the site itself in the search results.
The key phrases I am looking for are "larp nj" - where the term "larp"
is the kind of activity the site is promoting (it's a kind of game /
sport), and it's based in New Jersey. Searching on "larp nj" turns up
all our competitors, but not our own site.
I've designed the site with a SEO-friendly template, filled in site
keywords, made sure the front page has text and isn't just a splash
page, etc. - but I can't seem to get the site to come up on results
for those key words.
What am I missing? How do I get those words to trigger a better
result with my site?
The site itself is: http://www.knightrealms.com
(The odd thing is... we're one of the biggest games out of all
our competitors, DESPITE this ranking thing. It's more a matter of
technical frustration at this point than a marketing issue... ;-) )
