ranking on onet

[Crush]

has anything changed to rank on onet? i.e loads of keywords in title and when you submit?

onet changed a lot in their search engine lately. it looks like that old tricks doesn't work any more. also reasults from one domain are grouped (earlier it was possible to have position 1-20 by one one site).

it's look like domain name is very important now.

Our 150 page dot-com in Polish used to command the first two pages of search replies for the best possible single keyword. Now the default search is for Polish sites and users have to click the "Swiatowy" flap to get non-pl sites. We are down from #1 to #15 there. Fortunately the Poles are taking Google to their hearts, where we are #2 for the most important single keyword. So, this is what has happened in our logs:

2004
Google 4.935 visitors = 39% of all SE traffic
Onet 6.725 visitors = 53% of all

2005 to date
Google 12.073 visitors = 75% of all
Onet 3.049 visitors = 20% of all

Also worth noticing is that Onet doesn't seem to pay any attention any more to keyword in <title> or url when ranking. Our url has the form Keyword1-keyword2.com and that doesn't seem to help us as much as it does in Google.

looks like they just put crap results so people will buy ads. Disaster
