          Your website may not be ranking due to several factors, including poor SEO practices, low-quality content, lack of backlinks, or technical issues like slow loading times. It’s essential to optimize your site for both search engines and users to improve its visibility.

            Thank you, mate! I have a Android mod apk download website, but I'm experiencing ranking issues similar to yours. I write unique content, yet my site isn't ranking well. I'm going to check out The Beginner's Guide —maybe it will help me.

                          @fnmayss My domain authority has plummeted dramatically; it was a solid DA 9 previously, but it is currently only DA 7. While I'm still searching for concrete answers, I'm currently analyzing the data to see what could have led to this decline...URL: https://www.trafficridermod.me/

                              My domain authority has significantly dropped; it was a strong DA 9 before, but it is now only DA 7. I'm still looking for specific answers, but I'm currently delving into the data to see what would have caused this drop.

                                    Hi Alex,

                                    Actually, the website age is not that big of a ranking factor anymore. You can rank in the top positions with a website a few months old.
                                    Also, with just guest-posting is not enough to rank high.

                                    I'd suggest you take a deep and comprehensive read to the Moz's beginners guide to SEO. I think that there are quite a few things to optimize that you are missing.
                                    For example, title tags. You should make them more descriptive and focused on the main keyword/phrase you are willing to rank.

                                    Hope it helps,
                                    Best luck.
                                    Gaston

                                      Back link from site with DA of 72 to a website domain. Clicking on the link redirects to our website not the attended one.

                                      Hi,
                                      I've ran a back link check and discovered a good back link to a site which then gets redirected back to my company's website. I have a feeling that an old SEO agency has purchased a small website which has a decent link back from a relevant organisation with a high Domain authority and then redirects the domain to our website to get the link juice. What are your thought on this? Is this really bad practise and possibly damaging? Thanks, Jim

                                      Rankings Dropped After New Backlinks.

                                      I have a low-traffic website (under 100 unique visitors per day) and I've encountered a strange issue started yesterday morning. I acquired three back-links, one of these back-links is contextual and the other two are site-wide. The site-wide back-links are from PA 40+ blogs. It looks like the back-links are already indexed by Google. Despite these new back-links, my rankings across multiple keywords have dropped several positions. I'm new to SEO, but I would assume new back-links would improve my rankings. None of these back-links are low quality links, they are from real established blogs with high domain and page authority values. Could anyone give me insights into why my rankings may have dropped with new back-links?

                                      Do links to my website improve all pages?

                                      I'm currently building links to my home page (through directories) and blog pages. However, none of these pages are actually targeted pages for main keywords. In SEO, do links to any webpage of a site contribute to the improved rank of other pages?

                                      Website/blog list to get quality backlinks?

                                      Hi Everyone says quality backlinks increase ranking of your website. Can you please suggest a list of good websites and blogs from where I can get quality backlinks and how to do that. I have one person at my disposal full time to do manual commenting or any manual tasks for getting backlinks but how should i approach this problem (of getting backlinks). Where do I start. For information, my website provides online services (its an ecommerce site) and also has a blog in subdirectory. refer to www.geekwik.com www.geekwik.com/blog Would like to become top ranker on search for these services (eg 'logo design services', 'website programming', 'content writing', 'hire virtual assistant' etc) Also anyone interested to become our SEO consultant or SEO  service provider (of course paid) is most welcome 🙂 Thanks in Advance!

                                      Best five links to get first for a new website

                                      I wondered if people had a list of the top five or ten links you should build for a new website in order to add some sense of authority. For example should a new website start with key social media websites such as Twitter, Google+ and Linkedin ? Or top level directories such as BOTW and DMOZ? Should they local for niche website directories in their location or vertical? If you had to choose five links - free or paid which would they be?
