Why?

Hey everyone, my site Linkin Park Forum, is not getting ranked under "Linkin Park". I have great SEO ranks in many keywords, and my complete keyphrase list if over 400 long. Can anyone suggest why I might not be ranked under "Linkin Park" Also can you make some suggestions on how I can better my ranks?

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

"Links Links Links"

That's an ongoing thing to keep up there, another good thing to do is to just mention Linkin Park as many times as you can in the forum. (To an extent)

I know I have a PR2, that is just because when I got my PR I didn't have any links. I have tons now. My next PR will be high. I mean I have great ranking for tons of keyphrases. I just can't get "Linkin Park".

Well until the links are evaluated they do not exist in the eyes of the search engine.

Also, do make sure your exact keywords are in your anchor text.

But...really, you're targeting a commerical group, with a ton of merchants trying to exploit them - so expect things to be tough if you're going for "Linkin Park" directly. Make sure you get links from a wide variety of sites as well, rather than lots of links from a few sites.

Daminc is liked by many
A quick search in Google for:
"www.linkinparkforums.com" -site:http://www.linkinparkforums.com

shows 11 - 13 of about 2,520.

It seems a lot of your backlinks come from forums which probably won't be used to calculate your PR. You need to solicite backlinks that are more theme based.

AFAIK, sig links do provide some PR - but very very little. You are quite right, though - more links, more related-topic links.
