Hello, I'm new with a google search question

[kathryn]

Hello,
I'm so new I can barely figure out how to use de-grin, but here goes. I have been trying to improve my chances in Google searches and for awhile I was coming up first, but suddenly things went south. Now things are so bad that when I do a specialized search with the name of my company, Fiat Lux Foto, and my name, Kathryn Paul, I come up but when you click on it my website doesn't appear, just XML!!! What's wrong and what can I do?
Thanks.

The "xml" is actually a feeds link:

To increase your "findability" do the following:

* keyword the heck out of your photos
* add meaningful, descriptive captions
* get other sites to link to you
* start a blog, and cross link
* post in forums (like Dgrin) and link your website.

It's a big web :)
