Subject: Incorrect site on the query stats
I call up the query stats and do not find my web site on it
(www.everythingdear.com), but find someone else's - blockbuster77429.
That name does not relate to any of my stuff.  How do I get it removed
and my site in this tool?

Hi jammyster,

The Query Stats report in Webmaster Tools shows you queries where your
site was returned in the search results along with the position where
your site appeared.  So your Query Stats are currently reporting that
someone searched for "blockbuster 77429" and your site was included in
the search results for this query. These Query Stats will change over
time based on how your site's content changes and what search terms
people are submitting that return your site in the search results.

Perfectly legitimate search result.

The Great Frame Up
13107 Louetta Rd (in Northwest Houston)
(at Louetta and Grant next to Blockbuster)
Cypress, Texas 77429

On your "locations.htm" page.  Both keywords.

Following up:

That page is an ideal candidate for a robots noindex metatag.  It adds
no keywords that are useful to your business and as you've seen can
distract.

Or you could put it in robots.txt - but personally I prefer to keep
metadata on the page it refers to - it saves anyone who later
reorganizes the site having to remember the manual changes to
robots.txt

Thanks. You helped me understand what was going on and also answered a
question I have not asked but wondered why I found Donerekia and
Madeline as keywords found.  I will add the metatag.

Thanks again.
