Why won't my keyword search results appear on google's top 50?
-
They are only appearing on Bing and Yahoo, can anyone share some insight?Help? Here is the URL: www.aaexs.com

We would really need more information to answer this such as what position in Bing and Yahoo is the site? What keywords you are targeting? Has your site dropped in rankings or always positioned low?
There could be a number of reasons why you are not ranking well. Without more info it would be hard to give a better answer.

Your site is very poorly optimized. You would benefit a lot by implementing basic SEO best practices. A good place to start is here: http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo
Regarding Bing/Yahoo, Bing has a 10 year agreement to control Yahoo's search results so they are basically the same company from a search result perspective. They have different ownership then Google and operate differently. If you have an outstanding site, then your results may be aligned but otherwise there is often differences.
What keyword are you trying to rank for? A best practice is to focus a single keyword per page. Your home page title is: Roof Installation, Roofing Contractor, Siding Contractor Chicago, IL. Apparently you are trying to rank for multiple words which will not yield the best results.
Another sign of your keyword focus is your H1 tag which is missing on your home page.
When I search Google for "All American Exterior Solutions" you rank #1. If you want to rank for "roof installation" there is a lot of SEO work to perform. Your home page only uses the term a single time in content and it is not in the first sentence so it does not appear to be the focus of the page. You also have another page of your site which is better optimized for the term: http://www.aaexs.com/residential/roofing
Also, your footer is incredibly spammy.
Google desires to return relevant, quality pages in their search results. You may be a great company but your web pages need to improve in order to rank in Google for the terms related to your business.

Did you create a sitemap and submit it to Google through a Webmaster account (I'm making an assumption you have one)? That's one of the best ways to get them to crawl and index your pages.

Content, for the sake of the search engines
So we all know the importance of quality content for SEO; providing content for the user as opposed to the search engines. It used to be that copyrighting for SEO was treading the line between readability and keyword density, which is obviously no longer the case. So, my question is this, for a website which doesn't require a great deal of content to be successful and to fullfil the needs of the user, should we still be creating relavent content for the sake of SEO? For example, should I be creating content which is crawlable but may not actually be needed / accessed by the user, to help improve rankings? Food for thought 🙂

Google's not indexing my blog posts anymore! Why?
Google just recently stopped indexing my blog posts immediately after being published, why could this be? I would usually post a blog post and it would be in google results within 45 seconds, now they don't show up until 6 hours later, if at all (a few never even showed up). Also, my home page doesn't even refresh when I make a change to the site. My site is CantStopHipHop [dot] comI have all in one SEO, xml sitemap generator, and webmaster tools and nothing seemed irregular in the settings.I appreciate any thoughts/help/suggestions.

Google SERP UI in December
For retailers (or commercial queries), it seems like PPC ads, product ads and google shopping links were allocated more pixel real estate in December than in previous years, and the amount of pixel real estate allocated to organic listings declined further. I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge on when these changes were rolled out.

Location and how it affects search results
I'm ranking in the top 3 for a keyword in Google but when I change my location to a state of city I'm at the bottom of the page. Can anyone help? I made sure that the state I want to rank for is both in my title and body. The page has been up for almost a year and is a PR3. It is not my home page but a sup page under "areas we serve." I'm looking for someone who can explain how I can optimize for a state or city. Thanks
