   Hello,

   I just started a wordpress for my psych/folk band Backwords. We have been using our old site \"backwordsmusic.net\" for a while, but we want to migrate to our new wordpress site backwordsmusic.wordpress.com, which I got to point to backwordsmusic.com -- When you search \"backwords\" on google - our myspace comes up first, then backwordsmusic.net comes up second with the tagline \"backwords is a rock band from brooklyn and philadelphia, they have cowboy hearts and urban souls. they love cats and bounce on stage!\"

   I have two questions - 1) how can I get the new wordpress site (which is backwordsmusic.com) to appear on this google search maybe second, right under the myspace.. and secondly, how can I add the little tagline on wordpress? - similar to the one underneath the .net site (\"backwords is a rock band from brooklyn and philadelphia, they have cowboy hearts and urban souls. they love cats and bounce on stage!\") - is there a place on the dashboard to write one of these?

   Thanks for your help,
   Brian

   Unfortunately, search rankings are never as exact as that.

   The way Google handles it's rankings is a closely guarded secret, and as long as you post good quality content, I'm sure you'll make it towards the top, but shooting for a specific spot will just drive you crazy.

   We have a few helpful tips here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/search-engines/
