    Thanks to all that have been helpful in the past ! I own a Carpet Cleaning business and a small remodeling business in Virginia beach Virginia. I seem to be stalled on page 2 for most of me keywords .Here is a list of what I have done over time .

    1. 208 Page WordPress site. Installed yoast. All pages SEO correct .
    2 .Site is responsive.
    3. No Webmasters Issues.
    4. LOTS of social site bookmarks and directory submissions.
    5. 70 / 100 Desktop Speed Test
    6. 50 / 100 Mobile Speed Test
    7. Google Places Verified .
    8. Domain is over 5 Years Old .
    9. Last Month Analytic (Sessions) 591 (Session Duration) 2:58 BR 69%
    10.LOTS of internal linking.
    11. High Volume And Niche Keywords . Rankings from 2 page on !!!
    12.SEO Spreadsheet
    13.Https
    14.Local Citations Via whitespark.ca for competitors citations.
    15.707 Backlinks per moz toolbar.
    16. Schema data markup on main pages.
    17. Some PBN's Tiered linking.

    If you could tell the website name, probably we may help you in finding the issues. It is usually said that..it easier to get the keywords from page 10 to page 2..but not from page 2 to page 1. Check what your first page competitors are working on. Stop building bulk backlinks especially directory and social bookmarkings. Concentrate more on social media signals and guest blogging.

    I bet that those tons of social bookmarking submissions and directories came from low quality site which is not recommended.
    Don't waste your time in getting .edu and .gov links because Google already knows this kind of link scheming.

    Just ran your site against the competitors topping the ranks for "Carpet Cleaning Virginia Beach" and across the board your site looks like it's on par in most areas... except page relevancy. That's where to focus! Screen Shot 2015-06-04 at 11.05.02 AM.png
