Using my blog page to help category pages show up higher in search results

I see. So in order to get a category page page to show on say, the first page of search result for the search term “family cartoons”, do you think creating a custom field and input relevent text regarding that page’s content to be more appropriate? Right now, I think the last time I search and experimented, that specific category page was on the 7th page of search results. It’s a bit disheartening after spending months and months laying out a site, re-building it, trying to optimize it, re-launching it etc. only to see it just floating in cyber-space.
