Hi there,

I've started a new project from a customer.
After finishing the website was going through the normal process, like g webmaster, analytics etc.
It's an wp page.
Now the issue, bing, yahoo is ranking the page on first places (with the mentioned keyword phrase further down in this text) but google is showing no sign from the page at all.
The index says there are 24 pages from the domain indexed but to find with organic search is absolute nothing.
Like for example google.co.za (yea the customer is based in SA) with the searchphrase "Tammy Taylor Nails Sandton" (Yea I know, the customer want to be found with this).
Nothing comes up at all from this domain tammytaylornailssandton.co.za.
I know, the domain name is quite long.
Also I worked with the keyword meta tag, just so that the customer is happy.
But this shouldn't kill the ranking from google, or does it?
Could you guys please have a look and mayve let me know what's going wrong on this page?

much appreciated
 
Domain age please ? your domain is pretty new.I think its in google sandbox.

2nd thing your site speed sucks.Check my report http://prntscr.com/gak2xo

I checked your keywords are not very hard.According to me its very easy to rank.
 
Same to me. Started 3 projects on June using 3 different and easy KWs, but still no ranking.
I must say I didn't start any linkbuilding yet, but that's pretty weird.
Domains were never registere before.
 
@mobilenet you haven't actually said how long the site has been live. However, generally speaking it's a lot easier to get indexed and rank in Bing and Yahoo than Google, which seems to be taking longer to index a site than it has before, especially if the domain is relatively new.

Using the 'site:' search shows that the site is indexed and I see the first listing in map results is for the site. I think you're just expecting too much, too quickly. From an overview, the onsite looks fine, so you likely just need to get some more links - perhaps from the directory type sites that are ranking for the phrase - and you should see the phrase start to perform.
 
Have you done citation with the local directories?
 
@ababab

Thanks, but i don't think the page is in the sandbox.
Also the speed is always depending with what tools you check, and our customer likes high quality pictures more than speed.

but here my test from pingdom and not like yours from gtmetrix

@kickthat
Yes we have done linking with directories.
And you are right the domain is quite new (5 days)
But normally google was always quite fast with the indexing, that's why I'm surprised that it is now not really ranking.
 
5 seconds of load time is ALOT.
Usually I always try to be under under 1.

As said the cstomer want's more quality pictures than speed.
But the index issue have not really to do with the speed.

So we rather go with the suggestion that google is taking its time.
