Tim --
You seem to be misled about what's on your site. First, here's what's in the
head of your code for your home page:
<html>
<head>
<title>Eventix - Canada's Online Registration System</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="Event Management Software, Online
Registration, Canada, Toronto, Ontario, Conference Registration Software,
eCommerce, online ticketing, online ticket system, event management system,
event marketing,">
<meta name="description" content="Eventix is Canada's online event
registration and marketing system. The Eventix online event registration
system provides event managers with registration, payment management and
marketing tools from a simple online interface.">
<meta name="Author" content="Electric Villages Inc.">
<META NAME="robots" CONTENT="index, follow">
<!-- (Robot commands: All, None, Index, No Index, Follow, No Follow) -->
<META NAME="revisit-after" CONTENT="30 days">
<META NAME="distribution" CONTENT="global">
<META NAME="rating" CONTENT="general">
<META NAME="Content-Language" CONTENT="english">
Now here is what the spider sees when it gets to the first paragraph of the
verbal content of your home page:
<td width="33%"><b>What is Eventix?</b> <p> Eventix is
Canada’
online event registration and marketing system. The Eventix
online event registration system allows event managers to
easily create an online registration form for event attendees
to complete, reducing the administration of event registrations
to a simple matter of downloading the list of attendees.</p>
I could go on, but I'll stop there. The spider has had lots of opportunities
in the head and in the first paragraph of verbal content of your home page
to get the idea that your site is about "canada online registration system."
