Default Some Google Search Observations
I launched a site in late august and so far Google has indexed about 140 pages and its doing well for its targeted keywords.
The main keyword phrase for the home page is Irish Shipwrecks Database ...
Google rewards me for the exact search phrase Irish Shipwrecks but for upper our lower case I drop few places
I had not noticed that search results were case sensitive before this .
Irish Shipwrecks Database Shipwrecks Of The Irish Coast Irishwrecks Online Database Search word Irish Shipwrecks
Google.ie
Irish Shipwrecks 2
IRISH SHIPWRECKS 6
irish shipwrecks 6
Pages from Ireland
Irish Shipwrecks 1 + 2
IRISH SHIPWRECKS 2 + 3
irish shipwrecks 2 + 3
My server log shows most searches are typed in lower case so I will need to make some changes.

Just noting a few observations on googles treatment of upper case , lower case and Capitalized search phrases.
The site is only bare bones yet and a site map will be included in the final draft.
