   The purpose of this post is not to self-promote. A few clicks isn't going to help me whatsoever. I just want advice.
   
   I just started a website. http://new-electronics.net/
   
   If you search for newest electronics, my parked domain, http://newestelectronics.net is the fifth result (which isn't too bad.)
   
   I need help showing up on Google results better. Though you can kind of find me by searching "newest electronics" you can't find me at all when you search for "new electronics."
   
   How do I increase exposure and profitability?
   
   Thank you.

      In my opinion, I would do a 301 redirect to whichever site you want to rank the highest and use Google's Webmaster tools to tell Google that all rank gained at the parked domain should be permanently transferred to the main domain.
      
      Link building along with best SEO practices is the best way to improve page rank, and building a link network for one domain is hard enough.
      
      You can email me at chris@pricelessimprinters.com if you want to learn more.
      
      P.S.
      This is what I do for a living. Good luck!

   A few of my hubs have made it into the first page on google/yahoo search, like "lenovo y550p review" "how valid are iq tests" and etc. So I have the basics down, but what should I change about my site to make it more visible? It's only been up for about a day but I KNOW that it has been indexed for sure (Try searching for the exact domain.) For some reason I can only find one of my domains online

   I am no SEO expert but I think that google only indexes one of your sites because they are both very similar and doesnt see the need to have both in its search results. I think.

   I ran a useful meta analysis over at http://www.submitexpress.com and came up with the following results, perhaps you'll find them useful.
   
   Title:    This tag contains too many characters.
   
   This tag contains 128 characters. This is too many for what we would consider a 'robot friendly' web page. The maximum number of characters we recommend for this tag is 80.
   
   Description:    Found no description meta tag.
   The description meta tag is used by most of the search engines. Consider adding a description meta tag.
   
   Keywords:    Found no keywords meta tag.
   The keyword meta tag is still used by many search engines. Consider adding a keyword meta tag.
   
   Robots:    Found no robots meta tag.
   This tag is not really required but helps spiders to index the web page.
   
   Author:    Found no author meta tag.
   This tag is not really required but helps for your (company) name recognition.
   
   Web page analysis.
   This page contains too many URLs.
   This tag contains 115 urls. Some Search Engines have problems with more than 100 urls on a page.
   The size of the web page is to big.
   The size of the web page is 57442 bytes.

   first you have to stop searching for your own stuff while SIGNED in to google accounts on google when attempting to find google placement
   
   You are most certainly not first page for newest electronics and you will most likely NEVER be first page for "New electronics"
   
   Asking how can I make my brand new web site rank on the first page of google for a tech niche is like asking for the formula to turn lead to gold.
   
   The answer is get to searching and learning and write tens of thousands of words and get tens of thousands of backlinks.
   
   I would sell it on ebay, starting bid $99, allowing for best offers, be happy to let it go for $50
   
   Than go buy 7 new domains with more useful and conquerable keywords

      You are just doing more harm to your good ranking website by having the same content on another website with different url.  Google will only recognize one website otherwise people would be buying 1000s of urls and posting same content.   You could make all new content on new website and start over if that is what you want.

    Allan, you own an exact match domain name, that IS gold, if used properly, you need to do keyword research on a site like adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal for the keyword/s you want to rank for, and use that information to help yourself rank. however, ranking for a term like your going after is like trying to outrank google, on google, it's tough, for instance, you will NEVER outrank adobe.com for the keywords click here, I promise

       In my opinion new-electronics.net is great because it has the dash separating the keywords in the domain name. Thats the one I would focus on. Yes that is a great domain name for sure. I think I would be trying to flip it for some quick $$$
       
       The other one would probably be seen as one long word, not so good. I have a hub about how to pick a good domain name that gets into some of these things.

    Thank you all for trying to help me.
    
    Yeah well i've now realized that it seems to show up for certain people but not others (a majority do not see it)
    
    I've ran a test on half a dozen locations, and it seems like people with certain ISPs tend to find mine more easily. Otherwise, my site is kind of invisible. I've messed with keyword density, meta tags, and more, and i've submitted my site links to be indexed...
    
    I even am using google webmaster tools now
    
    But it seems like it's not really working or hasn't worked yet, because maybe google thinks that i've plagiarized because i've submitted alot of my articles in multiple places.
    
    One of my main goals is to get my 2010 laptop buying guide on the first page of google when you search "laptop buying guide" or "laptop buying guide 2010."
    
    To accomplish this, i've messed with keyword density a whole lot, replacing "computer" with laptop, etc etc
    
    I've also backlinked in a few places.
    
    If anyone could help me achieve this, or explain to me why it won't work, or what I need to do to fix this, please help.

       Now I will agree with you. I see newestelectronics.net placing #7 on Google.com for "Newest Electronics". Much of this is probably the freshness factor, because your site is new. Once Google pulls this signal away your likely to drop like a rock down the SERP's. So don't stop working on it just because your at the top.
       
       Keep working on getting more and more back links so you stay there!
       
       Why is your title "New Electronics" when your targeting "Newest Electronics" here???? THAT makes no sense at all and your giving up a valuable signal in Google's algorithm. I would make it "Newest Electronics" and never change it.
