There could be many reasons. I would recommend you to follow this checklist: 1. Are you #1 in a specific country? Have you tried results for .com / .co.uk etc.? 2. Is your web analytics software working properly? 3. Are you ranking number 1 for 'work from home'? That should give you decent traffic. Try to see if your title/description in results is very ugly. 4. Check the kind of traffic your keywords receive using adwords / wordtracker. 5. (Most important), have you manually 'increased' rank using Google Search Wiki? If so, try it from another comp without a login !!
It all depends on how many times your keywords are searched for. You could be number 10 on google and get more traffic for a more searched for keyword than being number1 for a less searched for term.
You should always do a keyword research before targeting a keyword..the point is you can't decide a keyword on your own and pray for search engine traffic.. try wordtracker keyword tool http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com Code (markup): or google adwords external keyword tool https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal Code (markup): good luck..
Wordtracker and others get their data in inaccurate ways. Google probably has a good idea seeing as they are the No1 search engine. Their tool says 0 and common sense would also suggest the phrase is useless. https://adwords.google.com/select/TrafficEstimatorSandbox
What kind of keywords are you searching for? If your searching for an exact keyword, or key phrase, that might be your problem. Not enough people are looking for the same thing as you. When you do a google search for your keywords, how many results do you get? If its less then 1 million, do not expect a whole lot of traffic. Lets say that your site is ranked #1 out of 20,000 results, then do not expect a lot of traffic for that search term. But if your site is ranked #1 out of 9 million results, then you can expect lots of traffic.
Where did you get that information from? That sounds flawed. Tools like Wordtracker are nice but you need to use them as a guideline and not read everything word for word like a bible/qu'ran. Those tools are not 100% right all of the time and also searches have the potential of varying greatly from month to month.
I have experience that Wordtracker is unreliable many times. If you want traffic from Google , you should check GG keyword tool too.
Please conduct a proper keyword research. Check to see "what is being searched" as opposed to "what should people search". Go for less generic and highly targeted keywords (long tailed as well). The traffic would be less but highly converting. Obviously if you are selling something, you need sales, traffic only would not do the trick. Cheers
Honestly, I think that phrase "work from home using" is just not doing you any good. Think about it from a user's perspective, IF someone were to type that phrase in, do you honestly believe that that by looking at the description and title on your site that will be tempted to click? When your phrase is so vague like that, and the phrase itself is sort of hanging off a cliff(word from home using what?) then I believe people tend to run into the problems that you are having now regarding traffic.
Is that on broad or exact match? When I check "work from home using" on exact match it gets 58 searches per month = minimal.
The search terms are too low. They have low competition for a reason. You can't expect a lot of traffic from two search terms that are not being searched for. 43 searches a day for 'work at home using' equals, big question mark.
I suggest you focus on more lucrative keywords Those search terms have very low number of searches. Even if you rank number 1, it is still useless because it is irrelevant.
