Can't get top 10! Annoying

I am trying to get top 10 for "Swordfishing" for my site www.swordfishingcentral.com

My site is truely the only site of its kind, but I realize that google doesn't really rank on content.

My incoming links use mostly "Swordfishing" as anchor text.

I have managed to get to number 12 at one time, but now I am at 22.

Any suggestions? I am also big on ADSENSE!

Mike

Vary up some of your anchor text... you're first with allinanchor for swordfishing, so try changing some of your incoming anchor text... that should help it look more natural, and the results will come.

Don't forget directory submissions, too, for increasing your relevant linkage.

Title: Swordfishing| Fishing for Swordfish.

One suggestion. Change your title tag. It has too high keyword density. Needs some of those smaller words to give it some air..but don't take my word for it, it's just my hunch on how googles search algorithm works. Called keyword, or "phrase" stuffing.

Try this: "Swordfishing Central - If you are fishing for swordfish"

Makes it sound more natural, and if I was a visitor looking at a search page, it would sound more appealing to click on...

Good luck anyways.
