It may not seem fair. It can be extremely frustrating, but you have to look at through the eyes of the searcher. Think about this in terms of the offline world. If you have to have surgery, who are you more likely to trust, an established doctor who has specialized in their field for 20 years or a first year resident? I'm asking for your honest gut reaction here. It may very well be that the first year resident is in all actuality the better surgeon, but most of us will trust experience above all.

So what do you do? Simply put, you keep doing exactly what you're doing (assuming you are keeping up with all of the tried and true methods of SEO). Just always keep in the back of your mind that though your efforts might seem futile in the short term, having a bit of patience might just be the best SEO action of all!
