Um Greg.The counter in you're store will not change unless a visiter goes to you're front page.People probobly are visiting you're store there just not clicking the home link.
Our Auctionwatch store is listed in search engines on the first page of every search and we get alot of sales.Our counter number rarely changes.
Its becouse when they click on our link it takes them to the item they were searching for and not the front page

Thanks, yes I have done that, and I receive positive results too. Guess my sales may pick up as I tweak things along. It's really discouraging though.
Now, you mentioned you searched in Froogle for "part of the title". Okay, I can accept that. Titles are important
Okay, I just spent time searching all 22 of the keywords that I have entered in Store Wizard location for keywords. I now have a much better understanding after searching those keywords out.
My apologies for not noticing the trickle down before. What I mean is that Froogle "picks up" from Title text first, ranks and displays those, and then keyword text, and on down to page text - which can really be down there or not showing at all on Froogle listings.
Sorry for my misunderstanding of just how Froogle was looking to all of this.
Now I see that Title Construction may be more critical than I previously understood it to be anyway.
Thanks Christopher!

Thanks for pointing that out... I never considered that (boy, I think someone else's age is catching up with me).
That makes sense - I knew that if they click the link from a search it takes them directly to the item - but never considered the store counter and it's relation to only the Home Page. I knew that too, as much as I use counters... key there is "page counter" not entire website visitor counts.
Boy... If someone could just help me figure out a way to embarrass myself further. LOL
Thanks for setting me straight on that.
