[Zero10]

Hey, 5 months now with expired domain without any good results


Domain is good aged + strong ( clean backlinks )

You have to promote your site with more organic Traffic and diversify your content more

You have to use the Keywords wisely for the backlinks

Like where I must promote the site?

Not all expired domains rank fast, irrespective of keyword difficulty. Keep posting content and give it at least 6+ months.

No one will tell with no details,
Did the domain ever ranked?
Did you make sure it's clean? not only the backlinks, check the usage, previous traffic, keywords, etc...
Did you match the niche while reusing the domain?
Are you matching the user search intent? longer content is not always as good,
Are you ranking anywhere in the top 100 for your keywords or any long tails?

Other than that, you could be overestimating the authority and link profile of the domain,
The same with the keywords & niche competition,
And again, no one could really tell without having a look at the website

After owning an expired domain for 5 months, you can restore its potential by rebuilding its content, optimizing SEO, redirecting traffic, exploring monetization methods, and promoting it.

As @hideath mentioned, you either overestimated the strength of the domain or you have underestimated the competition.

Out of curioisity, what was the RD/DR of that domain when you started working on it?

 

[HustleTong]

Most dropped domains are spammed to death in general
I'd recommend hiring someone to take a closer look at the link profile

 

[Zero10]

@Nargil what do I think give the domain more time or I buy new domain and make this 301?

 

[Nargil]

Do u think guys if buy new domain and make this domain 301 will be good?

You will make even bigger mess out of it. You haven't answered the question I asked a few posts above mate.

 

[praetserge]

Your average position is 11.6 (which is good) and you got only 595 impressions. Seems to me your keywords have NO search volume.
Can't say more without seeing more data.

 

[langthanger45]

Maybe your PBN is too weak, or the keyword you choose is too competitive.

Expired domains it takes time to rank Mate. Make sure you're building solid, natural backlinks over time and that your content is truly helpful and answers what people are actually searching for. Also, keep an eye on any technical issues, how users are interacting with your site, and what your competitors are doing right so you can adjust and improve

 

[Frederik Michiel]

When you spend 2-5 days for an article, you just dont produce enough content. For ranking with longtails you should.
Dont buy backlinks. Its a waist of money.

 

[ddxx]

what was the DR/RD? also, Google has a specific update regarding expired domains, where if the niche or content of the site is changed too much, Google penalizes it. You mentioned you changed the site language from Eng to Arabic, I think that's enough for Google to be suspicious.

You need to read that Google algorithm update regarding expired domains, I can't link to it, I'm new.

 

[ayushsomani]

Based on what you've shared, I see several red flags:

1. You changed the language from English to Arabic - this is a major shift that Google likely sees as suspicious
2. You're focusing on building links (20-40 guest posts) before establishing content
3. Spending 2-5 days per article means very slow content production

Suggestion:

• Focus on publishing more content first
• Keep the link-building natural and slower
• Give it more time (at least 6+ months)
• Consider staying in the same language as the original domain next time

The main issue isn't time - it's likely the drastic change in site identity from the original domain.
