I have tried allintitle:keywords, allintext:keywords and allinanchor:keywords, and our site comes up #1 in all three SERPS. So why does our site constantly come up #3 or #4 in keywords SERPS?

#1, #2 and #3 SERPS are different domain names, all owned by one company. This company owns 200-300 domain names, each name for each type of product they sell plus an assorted bunch of "*", "-", "_", etc. included in the domain name. No incoming links from any other sites but their own. Not even from DMOZ.

Each PR of these domain names is 5. The PR of our domain is 5. However, because our PR is diluted to 3 or 4 on our product pages from our PR5 index page, they suffer no dilution because each product page is their PR5 index page. Thus their PR5 product pages are outranking our PR3 product pages each and every time.

Each of their domains' index page is done a little differently by color, fonts and graphics so they are not likely to be penalized for duplicate content. I've complained to GoogleGuy, but nothing has happened.

Apparently, this blatant manipulation seems to be how one can achieve the best results.
