Hello Friends i have a very unique problem with my blog. My blog home page is not ranking well in google. It was ranking very well when i was on blogspot. But now after moving to wordpress, my blog home page OR my main keywords are giving me traffic. And Other posts OR pages are ranking well and giving me traffic. What is the reason. Any one please guide me.
When something changed in a site for example either domain or template or anything else it suddenly affects the SERP specially in google.So wait for some days your site SERP would return back.
Home pages frequently rank badly, probably because they contain general information whereas your specific pages will have more targeted content. This is perfectly natural, just make sure you have a good menu structure so that people can view your main landing page
Its true that home pages can often rank lower than other site pages that have clear topics. Select some terms that are relevant to your blog home page and ensure these are used in your page title / page heading and text content. Then use the same terms as anchors in backlinks to your home page. Good luck!
If your homepage is not liking structure with other webpages of the site then this kind of issue occuring.So make proper link structure for geting good pagerank for website.
I often see other pages rank better than homepage. Maybe other pages have more links than homepage or it is relevant to the term you are searching rather than home page.
I think maybe your inner pages have keywords that are not very competitive and they rank good but you home page is up against some strong competition.
do few things.. 1) Have sitemap . 2) Put your home page link in all of you pages( i think you will have it) 3) if you are building links then first traget your main home page link.
A two year old website of mine suffers from this exact same problem. I have tried small tweaks, design changes and just this week got the site recoded to see if it will change matters. Let's see.
