Just got to work today. and i noticed something strange with google, and quite frankly i am looking for a explanation.

I would like to know why some of my sites are ranked and some are not... for instance when i go to http://dermatechrx.com there is a rating of "0"
but when i got to http://www.dermatechrx.com the site has a rating of "3"

anyone have any explanation of this...

because Google considers that to be 2 different pages and so it has 2 different ranks for the same page.

http://www.dermatechrx.com
http://dermatechrx.com
http://www.dermatechrx.com/index.php
https://www.dermatechrx.com

all are considered different pages, thus might get different ranks

You need to use a 301 redirect to ensure that the only the one you want to appear does so

also make sure when people link to you they always use the same URL, so it builds up the pagerank score - real important
