Hey guys. So i've been blogging on a site that I don't own ( kinda like medium) and all my posts got indexed. I was targeting low comp keywords and they all got indexed organically without any backlinks. So my question is what can I do to signal google to rank them. I know it's out of my control but I would rather do something than just wait. I've been waiting for 2 weeks now Any advice?

Hey, try backlinking your content in the relevant niche. Use top sites which are having high DR and DA so that you get their traffic to your content, you get a higher rank on Google's search pages. I do this kind of linking with the help of a tool called Postifluence. It finds top-ranking guest posting sites of your choice so that you can build links to the relevant site and gets organic traffic 24/7. Try using this tool and have the patience to get results, it will definitely give positive results and rank your site higher.

Send some links to the pages. Also, google will take some time to rank the keywords. So give some time and share your posts in social medias.

PBN or Guest posts are good.

Build high quality tier 1 back links. It will help to reach position.

You're asking a classic question that a lot of online publishers ask, and I'm talking about publishers with half a clue because the other half don't even know about indexing.

They just publish and hope for the best.

At least you got half right.

Well, I'm sorry to say that to get your posts ranked, you must first come up with the right posts.

This is the step that a lot of people neglect.

In fact, in many cases, they're completely clueless about this part.

It begins with keyword selection.

You have to understand that in almost all niches, keyword selection can mean the difference between life and death.

I know that sounds melodramatic, but it's true.

Because if you pick a keyword that the heavy-weight giants in your niche already dominate, good luck with that!

It's not gonna happen because you just have a brand new site with no domain authority.

So you have to find keywords that are easier to rank and that are directly related to your niche that pulls some amount of traffic.

This should be your main task.

The good news is there's a shortcut to this.

It's called reverse engineering.

Find the top sites that are targeting the niche that you're focused on.

Enter their domain names into paid SEO tools like SEMrush or Ahrefs.

You will then get a list of keywords that are easier to rank.

Now cross-reference this with the monthly search volume for those keywords.

At the end of this process, you should have keywords that are easier to rank and have low-to-decent levels of traffic.

But you're not done yet!

You have to load each of these keywords into Google and pay close attention to the results.

Are the results the kind of information that you would want if you enter those keywords?

The step focuses on search intent because a lot of people publish content based solely on what they think that keyword means.

They don't care about what actual users are looking for.

Google is paying attention to user experience.

If people enter keywords into a search field and pull up your site and then click the back button, Google is going to interpret that sequence of events as indicating that your site has low content quality.

Pretty soon, your rankings will drop so search intent is crucial.

Once you're clear on the search intent, the next step is to enter your target keywords into tools like Surfer SEO or Frase and come up with content with contextual keywords.

The final step is the most important part.

Read what you write.

Ask yourself the following questions

Is this stuff the kind of content my target viewers would want to read?

Is it engaging?

Is it easy to scan?

Is it easy to read?

Does it thematically flow with the rest of my site?

Is it easy to link to?

Is it easy to link from?

Does it contain up-to-date information?

Does it contain information that can't be found in one place, except on my site?

By asking yourself these qualitative questions, you go a long way in beating your competitors.

I'm not just talking about writing something that is longer than your competitors.

I'm not just talking about making sure that it has the right contextual keywords.

All those are important.

But the ultimate question you should be asking is "Is this content serving the needs of the people that searched for the keyword that this piece of content targets?"

That's how you get indexed and that's how you rank.

While many people have given the opinion that you should build backlinks to your content and share your content on social media, which is absolutely true and agreeable, I want to suggest that you will be benefited more if you do that for your website that you own.

Since you already mentioned that the platform where you are publishing is not owned by you, this essentially tells me that if the owner of that platform decides to put the content down, he can, without your permission. You do not have absolute right upon the content and the url's of your content.

So, the question is - why invest time, efforts, energy, resources, blood and sweat in building backlinks to that platform?

First of all, migrate that content to your own website or blog and then put efforts in building the backlinks to that content. This will give you complete control and 100% ownership of the content that you produce.

Build high quality backlinks(Tier 1) for your website regularly. It will give you some boost on your ranking for sure.
