Although it isnt always indicitive.
1) In google. search for your entire title tag . If you are not in the
top 20 .. something is wrong.
2) also . in your case search for edi outsourcing . then advanced --
www.dmovers.com
so the search is edi outsourcing "www.dmovers.com"
Again, where do you place? Hmmmm...35th .
Perhaps you have a -30 penalty ???
