Strange problem in Google indexing

Hi all,

it has been some weeks that when I index a site, G picks as my main page a subpage, even if it is less pertinent to the keyword searched.

E.G.

I have the domain bluepencils.com, the user searches for "blue pencils", and in the SERP Google returns the result:

Pencils for Your Office | BluePencils.com
BluePencils.com | Read about the best pencils for your office.
www.bluepencils.com/pencils-for-your-office.html

This happens despite my main page is already indexed in G and it is better optimized for the keyword "blue pencils".

Anyone else is experiencing this? I'd like to find a way to solve this problem since for obvious reasons the rankings in the SERPs are negatively affected by not using the best optimized page for the keyword.

That sounds like a penalty on the domain, possibly a home page specific one. You are doing something G don't like, and they are demostrating their disappointment in you. Bad webmaster.

Might be keyword specific too, now Ithink about it, depends how desperately over eager you've been
