New Site Getting Impressions But No Clicks

its just google so called "Honey moon", when he tests your content and give you impressions, but this means absolutely nothing.
The only thing to look at is if after 1-2 months impressions don't suddenly drop, that means you got shadow banned.

Should we keep posting quality content?

Begin by checking your average position in GSC. If you're ranking below position ten, adjusting your titles won't help, since users rarely scroll that far down the results.

It's helpful. What do you suggest for keyword research?
 
I'd improve titles and CTR first, then gradually build relevant backlinks to promising pages.
 
If there were any impressions for the site, I would consider looking into the titles and CTR otherwise, since the pages are relevant but do not click through, it would be simpler to improve them rather than build links.

try using gtmatrix and google page insight to make it better. Title and descriptions are essential for getting notices. Focus on quality content and understand the Algorithms to get better reach.
 
I'd look at the queries getting impressions and see if the title actually matches the intent that's usually where I'd start.

If impressions are coming in but rankings are still low, backlinks can help more than CTR changes. Titles are worth testing once some keywords are already close to page 1, otherwise there’s not much traffic to improve yet.

Use emotionally charged or numerical headlines to get clicks from the impressions that already exist, do not exhaust your link budget yet.
 
I'd improve titles and CTR first, then build relevant backlinks gradually.

First, I check the pages that are already getting impressions. I improve the titles and see if they match what people are searching for before building backlinks.
 
Check the average position in GSC before assuming it’s a CTR problem because impressions alone don’t mean you’re close to page one.
 
Check your average position in GSC first. If you’re ranking beyond page one, zero clicks is normal. Focus on long-tail keywords, improve your titles and meta descriptions, and give the site time to build authority.

First titles, but just on the top 10-15 pages. If you're at position 40+, this is an issue with your rank, NOT your CTR. If I changed my title around for the exact query, plus location and a reason to click around it, that worked better on my local service site than having links in the title. While maintaining foreign impressions in GSC, limits backlinks to be light and relevant.
 
Well, before looking for anything else, first take care of your title tags and description. Just make sure that they sound useful and appealing.

i would verify which keywords are receiving impressions and their ranks before making any changes if rankings were gd test titles, but if the majority of the keywords were ranked at a low level, i would build authority before trying to improve CTR.
