    My website has 17 HQ backlinks, plenty of quality content but still no traffic from the search engines. link to the website: history news

    What's wrong? what should I do to fix this problem? Website has been created ~3 months ago. Indexed links are not climbing up in the search engine.

    :(

    For one thing, your site is still brand new.
    Your site is also infected with malware.
    you are not using https://
    You may have other issues also....

    case studies have proven that it can take up to a year to start really making any progress ie: better/improved rankings; You want something to happen overnight, and rarely does anything happen within the first 6-9 months of a sites life, and with your niche, I would not really expect anything to happen anyways.

    good luck.

    SEO is a long term strategy. Don't expect results overnight, but keep working on making quality content and the results will come. As long as you keep to Google's quality guidelines.

    https is not the factor here. The fact that matters is that its too new to state anything.

    The 'https' is a major ranking factor now as mentioned in Google webmaster blog. Hence you must get that fixed as soon as you can.

    Also it seem your website does not have enough backlinks that can help you to rank in Google. That is another major reason why you are not getting traffic from Google.

    It does not matter which factor it is, so regardless if it is affecting his site now or in the future does not matter. Google has made it very clear that it will favor secured sites using https compared to those sites not using https, and he should on all aspects to improve his overall SEO and site performance. Even neglecting the small things now will certainly have an impact in the future, and Google does not consider free SSL real security, as it provides no real protection if you accept credit card payments directly on your site. Let's say he waits a year to add https, then that also will affect any rankings, as Google will then have to reindex the entire site, and it is better just to do it now, and be done with it.

    You know, you are right. I am seeing it too. As google is pushing this https issue, so more and more people are going for letsencrypt or clouflare types of services. But these free SSL aren't providing much of a protection. Instead of that they are causing serious problems to the webmasters. I atleast hear 10 complaints everyday about people saying "My SSL has stopped working, what to do?", "so what type of SSL are you using?", "I am using Letsencrypt".

    I would recommend you to wait for the google update and then see. Also you need to understand that there are competitors and on which page of SERP you are.

    It depends on multiple factors why a website is lagging in creating good number of views, why not engaging users, why not improving it's ranking.
    You need not focus on just improving back links or getting rank for top keywords. Try to give better solutions to your audience. Suppose if your main keyword is 'salesforce training' then try to answer the general questions around that people will search for 'salesforce interview questions', 'salesforce training cost (https://www.crsinfosolutions.com/what-is-the-salesforce-course-fee-in-chennai/) ', 'salesforce certification', 'salesforce job opportunities' etc., Just for example purpose it will be useful. Likewise you have to create a viewership that solves their questions. It will reduces your bounce rate and keep getting more readers to your blog and it is one of the positive signal to improve your ranking.

    I have checked your website on ahrefs.com and there is a verdict:
    • Your links are poor quality
    • Your backlinks are not related to the topics of your website
    • You are asking the same question in every forum trying to gain traffic (stupid strategy)
    • Your content is poor (Short text, formating, images, references)
    • Try to check your pages with seaorch.eu and optimize it
    • Your website is to young
    • Your website is not linked to any social account.
    • I could write a huge list what to do from the technical side.
    Give more efforts and maybe some day you will get some traffic.

    Good luck.

    gaining traffic from the search engines takes time, even the it's up and down and all around! Just continue producing content and submitting to social media sites including mine, Blog Engage http://www.blogengage.com/ If you continue doing that the traffic will come, it's a very long consuming process so be patient!

    Seems your website is too new. But you don't need to click on the panic button just do the below:-

    Write on the latest topic
    Keep posting quality content.
    Create quality backlinks
    Use Social Media for promotion

    SEO can't solely improve the ranking of your website until your website content is relevant and seem to emphasize the viewers. Apart from Google, you can try to get featured on Instagram as well. There also the content is the soul but you will have better opportunities to show off your website.

    Hi,
    To get traffic from Google you must need to get rank your website on 1st page of Google with best relevant and high search volume keywords.

    • Create a mobile-friendly website (Use AMP version if possible)
    • Create SEO friendly URLs (Avoid special symbols like ?, %, & etc.)
    • Maintain proper length of Title and Meta tags
    • Target High Search Volume Keywords in Title and Meta tags.
    • Follow proper heading structure(H1, H2, H3…H6)
    • Use fresh content on the website.
    • Set proper keyword density in your content.
    • Set appropriate internal or external linking on the website.
    • Set appropriate value on image ALT tags.
    • Take advantage of Schema markup
