google is different from the other search engines... maybe your site is not properly optimized for google's algorithm. (themeing, keyword stemming, LSI, etc.)

Others may not agree with me but i think that site age plays a major part in the algo esp on big money keywords.

Our site like you features well on MSN and Yahoo for the majority of our major keywords yet on Google we dont. We feature well on Google for the keywords that are not so much in demand.

To prove this point further we can rank 1/2 in google for a keyword that has over 1.2 million results but has few sponsored ads yet a keyword with say 600,000 results that has loads of sponsored ads activety we drop back.

At a guess i would say that the Google Algo takes into account age of site, age of links to the page. I also think some sort of link filter is in play to stop you ranking quickly. MSN and Yahoo dont have these same factors.

Look at the sites above you in whois and note the age of the sites - bet you any money they are older than 18 months in the majority of cases.

Good luck - in time you will rank well imo

Looking at archive.org, I see they first indexed you May 28, 2004, so surely Google did similar. I had a site just come out of the sandbox that was first indexed June 3, 2004. Have you checked today? There was just an update, and I see you are still not out. Be patient...but keep doing what you are doing and try to figure out what you need to change. Are most of your backlinks coming from the same ip address by chance. Also, if you have any off theme sites sending sending site wide backlinks, I would suggest you stop this and limit to only 1-2 links for off theme backlinks.
