Why I get a low search ranking?

    My site is a PR4 site, alexa 260,000, and has more than 4000 backlinks, and my target keyword density is enough... however, use "YouTube music" keyword to search on google, my site is at 11 position, but the 10 position is downloadyoutubemusic.com, which has 41 backlinks only, alexa 2,012,000 and only PR1 site..

    I dont know why my site appear below that site... Could you please tell me how to make my site higher on "YouTube music" keyword search rankings?

    Thank you

    The reason i think is the domain name. The search volume of the keyword with your competitor domain name is much higher than that of yours. Both of you are serving the same niche but yet his domain name is more relevant or we can say more search-able in Google than yours
    search volume: you tube music downloader << download you tube music

    hey you are looking just towards the quantity of the backlinks,whereas you need to maintain the quality too.Therefore,it would be much better if you start submitting unique contents,article marketing,blog commenting and social bookmarking.It will help you to increase your SERP's.

    1) i am surprised you get as high as 11th position for such a popular term, this is pretty good!
    2) downloadyoutubemusic.com has "youtube" in it (this is not a suggestion you to have the branded keyword in your domain name), thus higher ranking
    3) they might have more backlinks than you do with youtube keyword in the link tag, thus higher ranking

    Yes we have the same thought.. It has a big impact about the domain name.. BTW do your site has a relevant backlinks from 4000??? or none of them are relevant.. That case it can also effect the ranking of your website.,

    Quality backlinks really matter and not quantity, so you should focus more on building quality backlinks to your site.
