Yeah, luckily the store has been doing well, I'm just worried about supply eventually dying out.

Maybe one of the members in Japan can find you a lot of parts or items you need for a cheaper price?

May I ask what type of hosting is being used for the site/forum and its cost? I work for a hosting company www.steadfast.net . Maybe we could help lower your costs to compensate for the lowered ad revenue you have been seeing lately.....

1.Your sitemap.xml looks fine.

2. "site:racketboy.com retro" is showing that your blog posts are indexed.

3. Your main homepage has a Google Page rank of 4 but your most recent posts are at 0. The should be higher since they are linked from a 4. My guess is your linking flow is not working. Check backlinks of posts in the webmaster tools console. Once you get that PR of 4 to transfer to your posts, your posts should be getting a better PR and start jumping up the results.

I don't know if this has been covered yet, but you might benefit from creating a site map to help google look for the keywords you designate as relevant to your website.

Edit: Oh, guy above me just mentioned it. Nevermind!
