Done lots of SEO work but still not working.

    Hello I am unable to find out why my site isn't being ranked high enough or getting found by people.

    I have done all the SEO work that there is known to me. Social media marketing. Community development. Article creations. Link building.

    Perhaps I am doing one of the above wrong? (especially the SEO)

    Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you! :D

    Web address is in the attached image.

    It all depends on competition. If you are trying to get on top on 'lose weight', than you'll work for a year or two before seeing the results ;)

    Check the competing sites you're facing up against. Check their backlinks and see how they rank up against you. Check numbers 1, 2 and 3 for your target keyword, then check out their SEO as far as on page goes and this should give you something to measure up against.

    its depend on your bcz you have not quality in SEO means you have not more expert knowledge in SEO so you work hard and get result but if you have good knowledge so you get easily ranking without more work and without spamming. first done all on pages activities complete after start start off pages work start all step by step not all work start on daily basis

    Google constantly keeps updating its meta description and what to show in its sites. Probably in this case, it determined that the search for domain name itself has not much to show in meta description. So check your meta description to make sure it is relevant, Add more content on the same page and then try again.

    You said you have done Link Building but your website don't have even one back link on google??? if you are trying to get ranking on Google you need some back links on google. So try hard to get some back links from high PR sites. This will help you to get rankings on google.

    You must do all SEO process with unique good contents that are best related to your site....
    First you need to analyze your business industry and your competitive markets to determine what types of results you can expect with a well-defined SEO campaign. A successful campaign will place your website on the first page of Google and other search engines and yield better leads that turn into sales. After that the required SEO process should be done for your business website..then you can get more business for your site...

    Hi Stephaniexx...
    I think that the above mentioned is advertising and marketing... not search engine optimization.

    SEO is quite a process and definitely requires attention to detail of your website.

    The meta tag analyzer below will give you very accurate information about what search engine Spider/Crawlers will see when they visit your website.... seocentro.com/tools/search-engines/metatag-analyzer.html

    I actually just analyzed your website (for fun) now within seconds using the above tool, without even looking at your site first... and you will be able to view exactly what it finds and the details it gives you... go check it out and see for yourself. It is a very useful Free SEO tool.

    Like I see that your website has 123 URL's listed on the home page... search engine spiders will see this as too many links.

    Well... hope this helps in some way!
    Dan

    Thanks for that, but I believe most e-commerce shops contain a lot more than 100 URL's (after checking my competitors, some contains 300 )

    Perhaps I have not put in the right keywords on the home page. Here is a list of SEO (on-page) work I have done....

    • Content duplication - making sure nothing is duplicated on pages, so that it will not get penalised by search engines
    • Used .htaccess to eliminate duplicate URLs
    • Used robot.txt to disallow pages that does not require visits from search engine bots
    • Canonical URL implemented for every page.
    • Sitemap generation
    • META tags editing to give unique content for each individual pages.
    • Used Google webmaster tools to keep track of various stats such as keyword rankings, sitemaps, crawling errors etc.
    • Implemented Google Analytics to track sites traffic
    • Created necessary links within the content of pages to each shopping category
    With regards to the work on keywords, I used the Google Keyword suggestion tool, printed out a list of relevant keywords people searched. Eliminated the generic keywords and kept the rest to implement across the site.

    the simplest method for good SEO results is to get as many backlinks as possible with your keyword as anchortext.
    try to keep out of bad neighborhoods like link farming platforms.

    Hi Stephaniexx ...
    I understand you have done alot.

    Did you use the analyzer tool for your site and see what I see?

    For a good example... You'll see a table that supplies KEYWORDS FOUND ON PAGE - "KEYWORD - TIMES FOUND - KEYWORD DENSITY" ...

    On your site... the single word you wrote the most in your content is "TOYS" ... and it is only found 9 times for a density of 2.86%.

    The keyword phrase "sex toys" - found 3 times - density is 0.95% ....

    For good SEO your keywords or keyword phrases need to have a density of somewhere between 3% and 6% ... and also need to be located in your meta name="keywords" and also in your title and description.

    Since the word "toys" is found as 2.86% density on your site... there is no way for search engines to know what "toys" you're talking about... obviously your site is an adult site....

    So you'll need to figure out how to incorporate a more dense keyword phrase(s) like ... "adult toys" ... or ... "adult sex toys" ... or .... something like that of a density of 3% to 6% density of your content. And make those keyword phrases flow naturally in your content.

    I have read many times that having more than 100 links on a webpage is something spiders/crawlers and search engines have problems with. They will still index your site... but probably not with as high of rankings as you want.

    The analyzer tool says this about your Keywords Meta Tag:
    <meta name="keywords" content="your, keywords, listed, here">

    Keywords meta tag relevancy to page content is fair.
    The keywords meta tag relevancy to page content is 68%.


    You want the meta tag relevance to your page content to be at least 90% or more... 100% would be best.

    Also... about all the 123 links on your home page...

    Is there anyway you can break that down a bit to say .... have 1 category link... that leads to the 25 or 30 links that lead to that category?

    Kind of like build yourself a "Silo" ... your home page with category links .... maybe 5 or 10 categories... and if a person clicks on 1 category their taken to the next page of the list of links to choose from ... that way you can cut down on the number of links on your Home Page.

    Just a suggestion...
    Hope this helps,
    Dan

    Don't wait for Google to reward you with some free traffic, explore other traffic sources too so you wont be completly down if Google doesn't like your site. Like "don't put your eggs in 1 basket".

    You only have 94 backlinks to your homepage. It looks like over half of them are coming from another one of your sites. That's your problem right there. Build/Buy more backlinks to your website.

    Edit: Oh yeah, your also trying to rank for some extremely competitive keywords. It's not going to be easy.
