Default Why has my search engine traffic dropped?

Oh, what I meant was, we are not found at the top of google searches anymore, with the exception of Minneapolis bars and maybe a few others, but we used to come up in the top 5 for any bar name search (with a few exceptions, but mostly)

So, if not ‘page rank’ I mean top search result, which I thought was the same… from what I gather from talking to other people and my own research, it’s a combination of url, xml, html, css, and meta structure, as well as credible links, depth of content, keywords, etc.

If we used to get a ton of traffic from search engines, but we’re not anymore, what could be the reason? Obviously, either people aren’t searching for those key words anymore, or, we’ve dropped further down the list of results. It may be the first, however, when I physically search old key words that we were tops on, I find we’re not now. So I guess I’m not 100% sure whats up with that.
