Related:www.mysite.com returns "did not match any documents" - there are plenty of sites that sell what I sell (I rank #5 or higher for keywords).

Should I worry that Google somehow doesn't lump me in with all the other widget sellers, even though I rank fairly well?

THX!

Hi, if your site is about six months old or newer, you won't see any "related" links. Fear not, Google knows, they just don't display it until a couple of page rank updates occur (related links has in my experience updated along with page rank)

I too am seeing this - I've also been stuffed by the 950 filter but although I cannot be certain, I think it may have previously shown some related results. Is there any known meaning to this is a site that previously displayed 'similar pages' but no longer does?

my site in question is over 7 years old, PR4. No clue why the related:www.site.com isn't working anymore, it used to.
