Why Isn't My Blog Ranking For Any Keywords?

    My blog has been live for about 2 months now and yet when I go to Google Webmaster Tools and look up my site, there are no top search queries for the site. All it says is, "Data not available at this time. Check back later." This is what it says every day.

    Wouldn't it show some kind of ranking for some keywords since the site is over 2 months old?

    It's probably because it's not reading your tracking code correctly.
    Make sure you have it placed according to the tutorial.

    I also want to add that I have never gotten Google analytics to work properly....and I have it installed correctly.
    It consistently shows that I have less than 10 visitors for a 3 month period...so apparently Ghosts, and Spirits are leaving comments, emailing, me and clicking adds.
    I gave up on it a long time ago.

    But usually, what I wrote before is the case, unless you are like me and it just wont work:)

    Something's not right.

    Doing a link check, Yahoo says I have 46 Inlinks while Google only shows my main page as being the only Inlink.

    What's going on here?

    BUMP - Can someone answer this question about why inbounds aren't appearing in a Google search?

    The most accurate way to see the amount of inbound links your site has is on webmasters not on G itself, if you want to check out a competitor then use Y link explorer.
