My website doesn't rank on Google

    Thanks for viewing my thread.
    I think my website doesn't get ranked on Google. My site is a newly launched blog, one and a half months old. Its Techpurge.
    Now i realize that when i type techpurge, on Google it only shows the website, and then other relations to my website that is Twitter and Facebook. None of my posts shows up anywhere even on page 2, 3, 4 of google. I'm worried because if i search for other websites from my niche, it displays the website, their twitter and facebook and several of their posts. So i don't know if Google is actually not crawling my articles. I use Yoast plugin to ensure all posts are optimized for Search engine ranking. Now this is a problem to me and i am very much open to your suggestions, please visit the blog and let me know anything at all even disregarding the SEO, that you believe i should work on to make my blog better and rank on Google.

    Thanks for reading through my question.

    Your website is still new. Just keep adding unique content to it over time it will start ranking.

    It's normal for websites of that age to not rank. As mentioned by kb24, you need to keep adding unique content as much as possible. If the content is good, you can post it to facebook, twitter, and social bookmarking sites, which will help you get indexed faster. Also, post content on a routine basis and focus on making the content the best it can be.

    Your problem isn't that Google isn't indexing your pages. Google indexes pages almost as soon as you post them. Your problem is that nobody links into you. Your competition that are doing well. Enter them into backlinkswatch.com and ahrefs.com and see how many sites link into them compared to you. There will be a huge gap between what you have and what they have.

    That normal your site is still new. But I suggest submiting a sitemap on google webmaster, I think this might help to index your page.

    Okay, i think i shall consider that this is happening solely because the website is new. Every effort to submit the website to Webmaster tools for each search engine has been made. We also registered for Alexa and verified the blog, we have been improving our ranking everyday at Alexa, up from 6 million to now 600,000 which is good so i shall wait for Google to index my website fully when it comes of age, hopefully not too long from now. I also submitted a sitemap too.

    If you're curious about how much of your sitemap has been read and indexed, you can look at the sitemap section in webmaster tools and it will show you all the details about what has been indexed, etc.
