Writing articles but no rankings?

[True SEO]

Keywords are low to medium comp and i ordered a pbn last month

That's not a bad idea. Are those links are indexed. You can wait up to one more month to see the effect of those links. IMO Try to get a few niche related premium guest posts as well for better ranking improvement.

Perform keyword density research.
Check for any spam links and disavow them

It could be an algo penalty or Google sandbox. These days the algorithm is shite. Crawlers don't seem to work either.

I have a few blogs with around 10-15 handwritten articles each and they don't rank as well. They are 6 months old and on expired domains with decent backlinks. It really seems like they are in a sandbox. The keyword difficulty is low. I stopped overthinking this issue. It is something completely up to Google

View attachment 137707 View attachment 137708 For the last 28 days I’ve only managed to ranked for 28 keywords it’s annoying when you write consistently for a whole month

Yes it is. Did you try hiring someone to write articles on behalf of you?

It used to rank based on solely quality of content, but now google does not rank website that way.

So how long does it take to get out of sandbox

All writen by me

Wait a few months more. Two months is to quick to rank. And check the search intent and backlinks from your competitors

Analyze your competitors content, keyword difficulties and creat some high quality backlinks you will be benefited

Low to medium comp keywords and most are informative keywords


Keywords are low to medium comp and i ordered a pbn last month

Indexed but not ranking at all

I have web 2.0s social signals PBNs and they are using the same amount as words as me


I’m not sure but it could be low authority domain but still for a low competition keywords shouldn’t I still rank ?

I got niche relevant pbn

Already do and competition is low

I have 100 + YT videos linking to my site

How would I know my site is banned ?


It’s been optimised, all writing by me and the site is good speed


How would i check that ?

if your site is banned you cannot find it in google. if you can find it, that mean you need more backlinks ,or better content.

Definitely not after this last update.

If you’re dealing with extremely high competition, then your comparative lack of backlinks is probably causing you to get buried. That is the only variable that I can think of here.
If I were you, I would get some more high-quality backlinks and wait for a bit before making any conclusions.
Also, you should keep in mind that Google is acting strangely these days. When did you stop ranking? 2 months ago? Or is that when you started regularly putting out content?

Did buy a niche related pbn. Also i stopped ranking around 3 months ago. It’s weird because I’m dominating one keyword and that’s it.

Have you build backlinks to the homepage and articles? it will be helpful to rank your keywords.

That honestly seems like a bug or Google going a bit too trigger-happy with wrist-slapping. Yes, it is extremely weird that you’re doing so well with one KW and struggling so hard with others.
Nothing to do but wait and see if it gets (or got?) fixed with this latest update, I guess. I wish you luck with that.

invest $$ in adwords semd traffic each page it will help

2 months is really not much.

I recently did an extensive analysis with 100 articles on my website, and found out that in average it took 211 days for them to "get out of sandbox", or, said in the words, to start getting some substantial traffic from Google. Just a single article from 100 started getting Google traffic in less than 2 months...

Be patient. If you do not want to (or cannot), you do not have to write more. Or lower your frequency. Just let them sit and wait. Patience is a necessary virtue in today's SEO.
If you did your KW research right and wrote good articles, and stayed within the niche, you will eventually rank.

 

[Backstory]

There could be many problems due to which your articles are not ranking, like

1. The articles might not have indexed at all.

2. Your content might not be SEO-optimized.

3. The keyword you would have opted might have higher difficulty levels, or the keywords you are using may not have high search volume.

4. You may not have created any backlinks or the one created might be toxic, and low-quality backlinks. And the Domain authority is lower.

5. There be might be the issues of Duplicate content.

Solutions to the above problems:

1. Create an XML sitemap; it helps Google to find your website pages easily and index them quickly.

2. Optimize your site for SEO, create H1, H2 tags, create relevant internal and external links. Internal links help increase your page authority, and external links increase your website authority.

3. Choose the keywords that have high search volume and have Easy - SEO difficulty. Use some of the best keyword research tools like Ubersuggest, Semrush, and Moz.

4. Create high quality and relevant backlinks. You can get free backlinks from and Quora, Medium and various other sites having high domain authority.

5. Plagiarized content will never rank on SERP. Avoid this, check your articles in Copyscape premium or Turnitin and considering removing all the content or rewrite them to make it 100% plagiarism-free.
