Regardless of the specific reasons, the underlying issue is that, for whatever reason, Google sees the homepage as a better result to show folks searching for [car battery] than the car battery page.
I'm seeing a slightly higher page authority for the home page (23 vs. 20 for /car-battery which, granted, isn't all that big of a difference). The total link count is quite different, though—the home page has 68, and /car-battery has 22.
Also, it looks like the content on /car-batter is pretty thin, and doesn't seem like it'd be especially helpful for someone shopping for a car battery. The interface on that page is much less intuitive, as well,
I can't be 100% positive, but if I had to guess I'd say that Google is preferentially serving the home page because it's a better-developed page with a stronger link profile. If you'd like the category-specific pages to be ranking instead, I'd suggest creating a better user experience on those pages and attracting some links to them.
Make sense?

but we have a page for www.powerwale.com/car-battery (specifically meant for car battery)
Pls suggest wht should I do..

Hi Abdul,
Can you give a little more information regarding the circumstances you are seeing this? If it is any consolation, when I perform a search for the term [inverter battery] in Google.co.in, I see your inverter battery page at the bottom of page 3 (I do not see your homepage ranking). I am performing the search from the UK, with Chrome in an incognito tab.
Adam.

Why is my Google search bringing me other keywords than what I typed in?
When searching Condor Voucher on Google US where our business operates the SERP results show results on the first page that do not contain the keyword Voucher at all but instead Condor Coupons and Condor Promo Codes. Is this due to relevance of the other sites(higher search volume keyword), their domain authority, page authority, better authoritative content? Or does Google recognize that voucher is not often used in US and uses more common keywords such as Coupon and Promo Code? Therefore we cant rank for a term with such a low search volume?

Google Adwords - trying to understand the figures...
Whilst researching keywords I often find the global monthly search on google adwords tool differs, yet the local (UK) is the same (or vice versa) Example: ready mix concrete - global 90,500 & local 18,100 ready mixed concrete - global 60,500 & local 18,100 or forklift truck hire - global 18,100 & local 4,400

forklift truck rental - global 22,200 & local 4,400 I'm making an assumption that for my local country, the phrases ready mix" and "ready mixed" are being treated the same, as are "hire" and "rental" but globally they are not. Am I correct? Of course, they could be two completely separate terms according to Google but coincidentally, have the same search volume. However, I find this happens quite regularly. Anybody shed any light?0 -

Google Trends not Consistent with Google Keyword Tool
Hi Everyone, I was doing a little Google Trends research on Real Estate and narrowed it down to my state. I have found that on Trends it is showing a two or three towns above the one I am living in showing that it gets a lot of search volume. They will put the top one as a 1 and then the others below it as like .87 or .675 etc. I am taking that as 87% of the top one or 67.5% of the top city in search volume. I checked these numbers against the Google Keyword Tool and found that my town still gets more exact visits (4 times the amount of the one Google Trends ranks #1) I can't see the actual search volume on Google Trends but was wondering....Which one do you trust? I have done some testing on it and realized that for the most part, the numbers in the keyword tool RARELY change. Do they maybe update it once per year? FYI: As you know I trended real estate so what I did on the Keyword tool is "Town State Real Estate" and looked at both Broad and Exact searches. I would appreciate any guidance you guys can give on how I should be paying attention to this data. Thanks!

Is there a way to tell google to ignore keywords in Webmaster Tools?
In Google Webmaster Tools for my site, the #1 keyword is "ago", probably because we format datestamps like "3 days ago". Is there a way to tell google not to count the word "ago"? Seems like a common enough word that google should be ignoring it. I have a feeling the answer to my first question is "NO!", so my follow-up question is: is there a best practice for formatting dates for SEO? Thanks!
