    What is your event and what search terms are you using?

    If you're searching the name of the event, do you have the name of the event in the copy somewhere in the pages of your event? Do you have your meta data keywords filled in? Here's a Google SEO guide you might want to check and make sure you're doing all the recommended things.

    I'm not sure what you got on Bing and Yahoo! but I get just about the same on those as I do Google. In Bing and Yahoo! I get an old link to www.walkrunremember.com but it's a dead URL. I also see something from Manta.com mentioning it. Then it goes into ALZ event "Walk to Remember" events. How is the SEO for the rest of your website? Do your regular search terms put you at the top?

     

    Are you a current Go! client? If so, I can get a Go! consultant to take a look.
