If I search for "google webmaster tools" the first result is the crawl url form. (A page that merely links to the Google WMT main page.) For as long as I can remember, the first results was ... obviously ... the Google WMT main page.
As my main pages disappear from the results I have been searching to find out why my inner pages are being chosen by Google as 'more relevant'. The problem is, whereas my main page would rank #1-#3, when google believe my inner page matches the query better, the inner page ranks #30 or lower for that term.
If Google Webmaster Tools doesn't show up for "google webmaster tools" what chance do I have of ranking for my terms? And surely that is a sign that their 'relevancy' is off?
