My articles aren't ranking for keywords

[JessicaSilver]

Hello! I hope someone can help me...I've researched my keywords (long and short tail) for my articles but they are showing up as no ranking keywords. It looks like I've only got a few of my 15 articles which actually have keywords within - and I'm not sure why! Please can someone advise? https://www.el-well.com/helping-your-parents-declutter-their-home/ Thank you.

Here are a few things you can check:

• list itemMake sure your keywords are actually relevant to your content. This may seem obvious, but it's important to make sure that the keywords you're targeting are actually relevant to the content of your articles. If your keywords are too broad or not well-matched to your content, you're not likely to rank for them.

• list itemUse your keywords throughout your articles. You should use your keywords throughout your articles, including in the title, meta description, headings, and body text. However, you don't want to overdo it with keyword stuffing. Google can penalize you for overuse of keywords, so make sure to use them in a natural and organic way.

• list itemBuild backlinks to your articles. Backlinks are links from other websites to your website. They help to signal to Google that your website is authoritative and valuable. To build backlinks, you can reach out to other websites in your niche and ask them to link to your articles. You can also guest post on other websites or participate in online forums.

• list itemPromote your articles on social media. Social media is a great way to promote your articles and reach a wider audience. Share your articles on social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. You can also use social media to engage with your audience and answer their questions.

Here are some possible solutions for the issue of articles not ranking for keywords:

1. Conduct thorough keyword research: Use keyword research tools to identify your articles' most relevant and high-performing keywords.

2. Optimize your content for those keywords: Incorporate the keywords you've identified into your articles, making sure to use them in the right places such as in titles, headings, meta descriptions, and throughout the body text.

3. Use meta tags: Make sure to use proper meta tags such as title tags and meta descriptions, which are used by search engines to understand the content of your page.

4. Create high-quality content: Search engines favor high-quality content that provides value to the user. Make sure your articles are well-written, and informative and provide valuable information.

5. Build backlinks: Backlinks are among the most important ranking factors. Reach out to other websites and ask them to link to your articles.

6. Improve website's technical SEO: Ensure that your website is technically sound, fast, and mobile-friendly and that it's structured properly to make it easy for search engines to crawl and index your content.

7. Optimize images and videos: Use relevant alt tags and file names for images and videos, and make sure they are correctly optimized for web use.

Remember that SEO is a continuous process and requires time, patience, and consistency. By following these steps, you can improve your search engine rankings for your articles.

@JessicaSilver
Please excuse my extremely long delay. If you use in ternal linking correctly, you can benefit from Google finding pages that it would not find under certain circumstances. Please see.

Another extremely helpful thing to gain traction on Google is to use semantic Contact with co-occurrences

Also, adding a semantic content network with co-occurrences will make a huge difference

Hi Jess,

Sure thing I will have time later tonight I will post everything requested.

all the best,

Tom

Thank you so much for this detailed answer - really appreciate you taking the time! Super valuable.

Hi Tom, thank you for your reply. Are you able to give some guidance on internal links? I've been pointing certain pages / posts on my site to others where they are relevant. Is it a case of increasing the volume of this? Backlinks, I'm on the case. Like you say, we're a new site but I'm focusing on guest posting etc. Thank you, Jess

Jessica,

If you are referring to the Moz Keyword Explorer tool not showing any ranking keywords when you are on the "Ranking Keywords" page exploring https://www.el-well.com/helping-your-parents-declutter-their-home/, then you just need to be patient. When you are on that page, you can read at the top right, "Keyword Data Updated Every Two Weeks" which means that you probably have more rankings than the tool currently shows because it's not showing real time data.

I did use that tool just now to explore your root domain and I see that Moz shows that your site is ranking in the top 50 for 85 phrases.

For example, you are ranking #4 for "self playing games for old people" and #13 for "putting on socks" and #18 for "staying fit for adults".

Also, I analyzed your site in ahrefs.com and semrush.com and found that their indexes show that you are ranking for 318 and 220 phrases respectively, in the top 100 in Google.

If you continue adding content to your site, optimizing that content, adding internal links to each piece of content, and building links in general to your site, you'll continue to improve existing rankings and gain more rankings for more keywords.

For example, on https://www.el-well.com/help-putting-on-socks/, change the alt text of the image from "Physiotherapist sitting down using a sock aid" to "Physiotherapist sitting down using a sock aid to help put on socks". It may help your rankings for "help put on socks" which is at #15 right now and "help putting on socks" and other similar variations.

Jessica,

I took a quick  peek at your site and my reply isn't directly about your articles. I think you should  focus your initial SEO efforts developing your business' distinct, core concepts of brand and details of how you want to get that message out. Also focus on your local SEO.  I think time spent on those things first will make the time you spend on the rest of your content more valuable and more effective.

Give me a little bit of time to inspect everything it looks like you did a good job with the content but all of it is orphan that I've seen. Meaning there is no other internal link pointing to it. This makes it difficult for Google to find also the main website it's on does not have a lot of backlinks that has very few this can affect your ability to be indexed quickly and rank.
