Keyword are not ranking
-
Hello,
Recently We have a taken a project " http://customerconnect-services.com/ " and are responsible for the Digital Marketing for the website. FYI, we have been following the best On-Page SEO practices ever since we took the project: Performing Keyword Research, Finalizing the Keywords,Using those in the Page-Title, Meta-Descriptions, Heading Tags and of course in the Content as per MOZ suggestions & SEO standards. But, we are unable to rank in first page; all the considered keywords have a ranking of 51+ which is a serious matter of concern for us. We have also checked whether the Domain / URL has been blacklisted, but it's not (Not even by Google).
We are therefore unable to figure out what is going wrong even after following so many best practices to get the keywords a good ranking (1st & 2nd page of SERPs). Therefore I would like to request you to provide your expert opinions in this regard by checking what is it that we are not getting right.
The website is euro t20 slam As this is a high-priority issue for us & the client is a prestigious one of course, please help.Looking forward to hearing from you at the earliest.

@Sabirasifseo999 Hello,
I understand the urgency of your situation and the frustration of not seeing your efforts reflected in the SERP rankings. There are several potential factors that might be influencing your website's poor ranking despite following best practices. Here are some steps and considerations to help diagnose and address the issue:
Technical SEO Audit:
Crawlability and Indexability: Use tools like Screaming Frog or Google Search Console to ensure that all important pages are crawlable and indexed by search engines.
Mobile-Friendliness: Check if the website is mobile-friendly using Google’s Mobile-Friendly Test. Mobile usability is crucial for rankings.
Site Speed: Analyze the site's loading speed using tools like Google PageSpeed Insights or GTmetrix. Slow-loading pages can negatively impact rankings.
SSL Certificate: Ensure the website uses HTTPS, as it is a ranking factor.
Content Quality and Relevance:Content Depth and Uniqueness: Ensure that your content is unique, comprehensive, and provides real value to users. Thin or duplicate content can harm rankings.
User Engagement: Check metrics like bounce rate, average session duration, and pages per session in Google Analytics. Poor user engagement can indicate content or usability issues.
Internal Linking: Use internal links to help search engines understand the site structure and to distribute link equity across pages.
Backlink Profile:Quality of Backlinks: Use tools like Ahrefs or SEMrush to analyze your backlink profile. Focus on acquiring high-quality backlinks from authoritative and relevant sites.
Anchor Text Diversity: Ensure that the anchor text of backlinks appears natural and varied.
Disavow Toxic Links: Identify and disavow any low-quality or spammy backlinks that might be harming your site's credibility.
Competitor Analysis:Keyword Gap Analysis: Use tools like SEMrush or Ahrefs to compare your keyword rankings with those of your competitors. Identify gaps and opportunities.
Content and Backlink Strategies: Analyze top-ranking competitors to understand what content and backlink strategies they are employing successfully.
User Experience (UX) and Design:Ease of Navigation: Ensure that the site’s navigation is intuitive and user-friendly.
Interactivity and Design: High-quality, interactive, and visually appealing design can enhance user engagement and satisfaction.
Local SEO (if applicable):Google My Business: Ensure your Google My Business profile is fully optimized and regularly updated if local SEO is relevant for your business.
Local Citations: Ensure consistency in NAP (Name, Address, Phone number) across local directories and citations.
Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustment:SEO is an ongoing process. Regularly monitor your rankings, traffic, and other SEO metrics. Be ready to adjust your strategies based on performance data and algorithm updates.
By systematically addressing these areas, you can identify the specific issues affecting your site's rankings and take appropriate actions to improve your visibility on SERPs.Please provide any additional information or specific details about the site's SEO history and current strategies if available, and I'll be happy to offer more targeted advice.

- Nozzzle had a great answer. Also, run it through تابلوسازی . You have several .png over 1 mb. I would optimize those to proper size and etc. As you probably know, speed is a factor. Good luck!

How long have you been at it? It can take months to years to get high in google search engine results for competitive keywords.
What keywords are you trying to rank for?
Have you done on-page SEO? Have you tried off-page SEO in the form of a link building campaign (ie guest posting)?
Do you have a blog and post regularly? Is your content SEO optimized and long form (more than 1,000 words)?
If you do not want to hire an SEO firm then I will need more information to help you.

We took a quick glance at https://eurot20slamleagues.com and this is what we found:
-
You have a total of 20 links from root domains. Your competitors have thousands. You need to get links.
-
In order to get links and to keep visitors browsing your site, you need to create compelling content. Look at the top ranking pages' content to get ideas on why there content is compelling and therefore has many links pointing to it.
-
On your Euro T20 Slam History page you spent the first two paragraphs telling me that this page is going to tell me about the history of this league. That's just fluff. You need to just start telling me about the history.
-
On your Boom Boom Shahid Afridi page you also waste the first paragraph telling me that this page is going to tell me about Boom Boom Afridi.
-
Unfortunately, there are a lot of grammar mistakes within your content that you need to fix as well. It's not compelling content if it's a little difficult to read.
You also need to create more pages. For example, when I go to your Icon Players page, you have a brief summary of 4 players but only one of them has a link to a bio page all about that player (Shahid Afridi). You'll have a better chance at ranking for Shane Waston, Brendon McCullum, and Rashid Khan if you build out awesome pages for each player.
Good luck!

Page not Ranking I feel helpless!
Hi there 🙂 I have been working at SEO for quite some time and I am such a noob. I have even done an online course. I am at my wits end. My website is https://www.urbani.com.au. I changed to https about 1 month ago. I want to rank for "outdoor furniture perth". Recently my homepage has stopped ranking for this keyword, and a useless blog page started ranking instead (www.urbani.com.au/tag/outdoor-furniture-perth/), on page 5 of google. I got rid of that page and redirected it to my homepage. Do you know what the problem is? Why won't google rank my homepage for "outdoor furniture perth"? It is ranking for "outdoor wicker furniture perth", but for "outdoor furniture perth" it has disappeared from the face of this earth. Thank you so much, if I can get help for this it would save my business! Whitney

Inbound link is follow link but we put no follow link back - is it beneficial for rankings?
Dear Moz Community, We are operating in a niche market, where there are not so many content marketing options. What we are left with are link exchanging with relevant sites that are on the same topic but to not directly compete with us. Now we know that if we link back to site A and site a links back to us - for google this is not a very good link. But, some of the sites we are exchanging links with, do not know the term follow vs no follow links. My question - if your link is to site A is a no follow link but they give us a follow link - does it mean thats a better option than a follow vs follow. Thanks for help!

Different URL (not homepage) showing up for main keyword
Hello, When we search for 'boutique hotels' the following URL appears on first page in Google UK: https://www.i-escape.com/united-kingdom/boutique-hotels While we're pleased to be ranking on first page, I was wondering why it hasn't picked up our homepage, as it has for our competitors. Does this simply mean Google deems this page more worthy of first page SERPs? Thanks again for your help Moz community!

Does More Guest Posts Effect Website Rankings in a Negative Way?
Hello Everyone, On an average I am getting around 20 backlinks for 15 days. All these backlinks are done through proper outreach and guest posts in relevant websites. We have a team of four people doing only outreach and getting backlinks through proper guest posts. But I am worried on whether it will effect my website ranking in a negative way? Kindly get me clarified with my doubt. Should I continue this or should I reduce my numbers?

Guidelines for keyword-targeting and link building?
Hello, Every month, I set a goal of targeting 10 - 15 relevant keywords for my website. I then attempt to boost my site's rankings for these terms through a combination of content writing and white hat, non-paid link building. My question is: Are there general guidelines for keyword-targeting and backlinks? Is it healthy to target 10 - 15 different keywords (or more??) like this per month?

Why is my homepage ranking BELOW a subpage?
Search "peer to peer lending". The page http://www.ratesetter.com/peer_to_peer_lending.htm appears higher than the homepage. I don't think this is because of keyword density on page either as Zopa (competitor) have zero mentions of this keyword on their homepage. What are your suggestions for getting the homepage ranked higher? Thanks, Simon.

Simple Question Regarding Keyword Landing Page
Hi guys, I run a small online business in Singapore want to try to DIY SEO. Been doing alot of reading and using the wonderful tools at Seomoz. This might be the first dumb question here. Its very basic but i cant seem to find anything on it (maybe its too simple). Let's say i want to rank 3 keywords - A, B & C. Do i use homepage as landing page for all 3 or do i use 3 separate pages? ( i tend to think the latter is correct). If I use 3 pages and do all necessary optimization and start a link building campaign, do i get backlinks to point back to homepage or the kw targeted page? Eg. an article submission exercise (not the best thing to do i know but i promise ill only submit to good sites). Are these the right things i should do? Keyword: car horns. landing page: carshop.com/car-horns write a 400 word article about car horns and use as content on carshop.com/car-horns write another 400 word article about car horns and post to say carhornarticles.com at the end of article mention a line about my business dealing with car horns and hyperlink 'car horns' pointing back to ??? (carshop.com or carshop.com/carhorns) repeat, writing unique articles each time but changing anchor text to something different each time, maybe 'purchase car horn' etc. Or should links be divided between both carshop.com& carshop.com/carhorns? I swear i used the search function before asking this question. Hope it's not so silly i dont get any help. Thanks guys!
