As far as I can tell, it seems to be because our URLs always contain '?', which Google seems to think is shorthand for "don't take this seriously because it's just generated output".
I don't think so. Google *adores* the london.crafts wiki.
Odd. (See following.)
We had this conversation about a year ago, if I remember right.
Yes, we did. However, since then we seem to have dropped off the face of the Google earth. Even a london.pm.org raw XML version of a page about the Windsor Castle pub shows up early on in a Google query of '"Windsor Castle" Campden', whilst our page (http://london.openguides.org/index.cgi?Windsor_Castle%2C_W8_7AR) is a million miles down on results page 16. A search for 'Open Guide' brings up the Glasgow guide as top hit, and even our competitors World66 are higher up(!).
What's going on?
