SEO and Keyword Ranking Question

Hello,

My domain is roughly 5 months old, and I've been building backlinks for the last 3 months. Our niche is pretty competitive when it comes to SEO. My website is optimized well. We publish 700-900 character keyword rich blog posts 3 times per week. All my category and product pages feature 400-600 word descriptions with high traffic keywords and long tail keywords within the descriptions. I've been using HARO as our way of building backlinks. I currently have ******** backlinks from high traffic websites like, https://sharethis.com/ (DA81), https://merryjane.com/ (DA78), https://thriveglobal.com/ (DA76), https://cmswire.com/ (DA71), https://fitsmallbusiness.com/ (DA66), https://fundera.com/ (DA64), and more. According to MOZ, we currently only rank for 31 keywords, and none of them are bringing us traffic. Also, our Domain Authority is 24 and Page Authority is 25. My competitors who are performing well are ranking for 6-8k keywords, and are driving anywhere from 150k-400k clicks to their website from organic search alone. They've been selling online for the last 2-4 years. My question is, should I be concerned? Or should I continue doing what I am doing and remain patient?

Thanks

Mate, SEO needs time. Don't give up. It just a beginning. Get Motivated by your competitors do smart and hard work as much as you can. you'll see the results soon.

You chose HARO and it's pretty good that you're getting links from it. That's one of the whitest link building methods
In my opinion your content is not detailed enough. 900 words? How many words do your competitors publish? Your content should be superior, longer, more detailed
