      I am struggling to grasp the new logic behind google, my understanding was that they wanted to return more related searches so that the search matched the results giving people exactly what they are looking for from trusted suppliers.

      However I work in the vacation rental niche and I have found that the individual long tail searches have started to become less valuable as they are no longer giving the exact property.  Here is a screenshot of the top 10 results for the key phrase "10 bedroom villas in quinta do lago"

      Position 1 & 2 are good results and would be expected however the next 7 positions are completely not related to the search, yes it is quinta do lago. But I am looking specifically for a 10 bedroom villa, none of these pages offer 10 bedroom villas.  I actually found my listing outside the top 20 and mine is a 10 bedroom villa in quinta do lago.

      Does anyone have anything that can enlighten me on this?

      Thanks

      Andy
