Site not climbing???

[jdturtle2001]

I have a site that I'm working on at http://www.phoenix-real-estate-houses.com and for some reason we're not climbing on the search engines. The site is optimized, I've done quite a bit of backlinking and here's the words I'm trying to rank for and I'm not in the top 1000 results...Phoenix Real Estate and Phoenix Arizona Real Estate...can anybody give me some insight into this...

I've done quite a bit of backlinking

So continue with backlinking...

How old is your site - mine stopped climbing around 200 and it is 4 months old.

As you probably know Google is showing all backlinks coming from within your site.

That will make it hard to get anywhere. As soon as Google picks up on the backlinks you should see better results.
