Google is a lost cause. I get trumped by filler sites (whitleabels/tubes with sponsor and stolen content avail on every other tube) targeting my sitenames all the time. I offer hand-written legit articles, the filler/thief/spam sites offer duplicate content everyone else has and I still end up under them in serps, if at all, but because they setup tag pages of "my domain" words, I lose all cred.
Ironically, my tgp build that I abandoned over a year ago is still increasing traffic, unmanaged, using content and descriptions avail everywhere else, too. So their algo is flawed to give the tgp cred but take cred away from our premium blogs.
