I have a travel website. This website was started about 1.5 months ago. It has 166 keywords. I track them every 3 days. I check Google USA and Google local (state) (both mobile and desktop). And I see some positions only on a few keywords, and those are branded searches. The rest of the keywords are not even in the TOP-200.
All pages are indexed. No errors, manual action in GSC. No problems at all. We have GMB page.
What problem can be? Maybe someone has faced the issue like that? Please help!
 
How long have the posts you want to rank been indexed?

If they've been indexed for more than 6 months and you're not seeing any rankings, you should work on interlinking to give authority to the posts you want to rank.

Pages have been indexed approx 1.5 months ago. It's the first time I see the problem like this. Usually I see rankings in about few weeks.

It's best to wait at least 3 months, and if you don't see any changes in rankings, you should work on your interlinking.

It can usually take up to 6 months to see real results, as Google often runs multiple tests on new posts.

This is a travel commercial website. It has info pages, blog posts, and commercial pages with tours. Does it really matter to Google what type of pages those are?

3-6 months? Hm... something new. I often got results in SERP in a maximum of 2-3 weeks. And now it's 3-6 months... wow.
P.S. young domain with no history, no backlinks except spammy backlinks from SEO agencies.
 
I'm experiencing a similar issue with my new website - while some pages are being indexed, the site doesn't appear when searching for our brand terms directly.
 
At 1.5 months old, i wouldn't spent more than 5 minutes a week analysing any kind of stat, I'd sweat my sweaty ones with nonstop content work till my travel site was a juggernaut compared to the other ones in my niche. You have to wait YEARS to have a good site make progress. At least a year, there are so many one year dreamers, who start, fill the niche with bs, and then give up, and that's like the first level of this game you have to progress past.

If you don't make money in the first year, and your site is nowhere, can you STILL make it a second year, so you get a culling of sites, and a brand new bunch that are NEWER than yours. Then really lets see if you can make money in your second year, as now you've survived maybe what 7-10 google updates, so you've had the roughs. Thats more realistic to probably what you're thinking. You don't deserve any amount of visitors after a couple of months if you're site is basic.

I bet your competition has video creation, audio, web posts, social media syndication, and marketing promotions all down tight. Do you? what do you plan to do by NEXT year and then after?

As I mentioned in the beginning, I see the issue like that for the first time. I had lots of websites in Google. None of them had such problems. That's why I've posted this question. It looks strange to me

Your situation is definitely worse. You don't even have your branded keywords in SERP. WE had the same problem in the first week.
 
It’s pretty normal for a 1.5-month-old site to not rank well yet, especially for non-branded keywords. Google "now" often takes time to build trust with new domains. Just keep publishing quality content, build good backlinks, and give it some more time, and you will see better movement after a few weeks.
 
I think there is no alternative to SEO to rank a website on the first page of Google because SEO is a powerful project.

they’re helpful for narrowing down what might be going on. You're doing a lot of the right things early on, but not ranking in the top 200 for most non-branded keywords is definitely something to troubleshoot.

How do you know what things I'm doing now ? haha :)
 
Update the content and start interlinking your content. And upload some pillar content to support your main pages.

Also, try to build some citations too. And since your domain is just 2 months old, i would suggest you should wait some time to see all of the pages to get in the SERPs.

We use blog posts on the website as pillar content.
+ we've already bought 2 backlinks. I know it's very little amount. but still
 
Low rankings may be due to your site being new with low authority—focus on building high-quality backlinks, optimizing content, and improving local SEO signals.
