P.S.Please don't tell me "go and search", I searched a lot and could not find the exact answer to the questions above.
As far as I know, allintitle tells you how you would rank if the only thing that counted was your title, and I assume allintext is for on-page content only. As, allinanchor is for anchor text on inbound links only. Using these tools can show you if you have any opportunity to improve your title, text, and/or anchor text if the tools say you should rank higher than you actually do in the SERPS. (I thought this is what the tools were created for...so webmasters can make sites more in line with what Google wants - I may be wrong though)
You probably already know this and your question is: what the heck is going on with allintext/title when my site's title & content are pretty darn good, but the tools sometimes say I should not even be in the index. Not to mention allinanchor stays awesome. That's my question anyway.
The answer I'm trying to convince myself is that Google is sort of broken or going through super-duper changes right now and SERPS just aren't quite right. Since my site is a truly unique one that offers the most products to consumers in my topic, it really shouldn't be disappearing so much. Hope that helps a little!
Then yesterday, my site showed #2 for allintitle and allintext as well as allinanchor and is now consistently ranking #2 in the SERPS. I checked all the datacenters and it is #2 across in everyone.
If your site is optimized for allintitle and allintext, then maybe it will follow the same kind of pattern and eventually settle in to a nice top spot.

Great thanks. So much to learn in so little time :o)
Now I think that we got closer to his secret of success. I checked his site in allintext and allintitle result on the keyword mentioned above, I found out that he is in top 3 in
allintitle, allinanchor, and allintext.
Now we have to guess how to get our sites higher in allintitle and allintext, and if we manage it I think we will stick to higher rankings in G.
Dear Forum Members,
Nobody will tell us his secret about the issue mentioned above. I'm sure here are people who know this secret, but they are quiet and they will be.
Let's post our cases on this thread and then sum up our data . If you don't want to make public your cases I will be happy to get your steacky mail and then share my obsrvations.
After all, I think being in top results in allintitle and allintext is extremely important.
Let's discuss how to get that places.

All of my interior optimized keyword pages (with lots of anchor text links pointing to that interior page) are showing up well.
Meanwhile, we have sent a search party with corpse sniffing dogs to look for the index.html page.
Sometimes the index page is top 5, sometimes it's disappeared. But the seo'd and anchorintext interior pages are doing great or better.
Changing my tactics to accomodate their new tactics for index pages.
There is an entire forum devoted just to linking strategies on this site. I spent several months there when I first joined learning the techniques and then applying them. This is the first week that I have seen true SERPS fruit from those efforts. If my site stays at number 2 it will be worth all that time.
Maybe but not sure, but how can you explain that my competitor has not been out of top 3 results for several months and I go in top ten and nowhere. The only reason I see is that I do very bedly at allintitle and allintext.
I should add that he has much fewer inbound links then me.
Don't you think that all this is strange?
there are the very top sites that always stay in somewhere and then there are others that seem to exist on up to 3 different indexes.
This leads me to believe that the current algo that G is using for www, anchor text just isn't being weighed, or not being weighed properly, or theres a bug. What else would explain it? Is anyone else seeing this?
My ranking on allintext fluctuates between #3 and #20 and my ranking in the main SERPS fluctuates in sympathy.
Before Dominic, my site occupied #3 in the main SERPS. My PR is 5 and my onpage stuff is pretty well optimized (at least in pre-Dominic terms).
My observations lead me to believe that not only is allinanchor not being factored in, but the results it gives are incorrect.
Does www = allintext? How can it be?
How can we optimize websites for allintext?
Has anybody idea?
Does www = allintext? How can it be?
Of course, www!=allintext. Do a search for a number of words (e.g. 'the'). Also, I believe that anchor text is still the most important part.
How can we optimize websites for allintext?
There is no general answer to this question. You have to find that out by yourself (by changing the occurrence / density of the keyword, Hx, bold, strong tags ...). However, even if the ranking for allintext is improved (while allinanchor and allintitle are unchanged), this doesn't mean that the ranking in the SERPS is improved.
#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.
