: Google Places good rank on wrong keyword/category I have noticed that several people find my website by searching for a completely unrelated term. This has to do with the fact that I have registered

Presumably your pages are in Swedish? If they are, or predominantly are, you would want the appropriate html language tag. For the UK I use en-gb, for Sweden it would be sv.

I'm pretty sure Google reads these to help geo-locate domains that use domains that are not expressly used now for countries - .eu, .me, .ly (bit.ly for example)

If that has any effect be sure to post back here :)

I'm not sure there is anything you can do about your actual ranking for hotel, but one thing is to make sure that your title tage and meta-description is clear about what your company does. Since Google uses these as the text for your rankings, this lets users searching for hotel know that you are not a hotel.

Otherwise, focus on getting your site ranked well in your actual keywords and then hopefully that will overshadow random traffic from the wrong keyword.

I have a similar situation on my site since my company name contains a keyword for a completely different niche.
