About 1 month after I went live with a customer’s website, the search doesn’t react very well on some critical keywords, I appear at position 100. Usually my websites appear listed 10 days after launch in page 1 or 2 in the Google’s search result, my market is very local so competition is low.
Most of my client’s website’s pages are listed and/or indexed by Google but I can’t find out why searching on some critical keywords this website isn’t listed. The website is www.becar.cl and the important keyword is “abogado Concepción” on google.cl
I had a quick look at your site, and I couldn’t find the phrase “abogado Concepción” anywhere. I couldn’t even find “abogado”, except in the page titles.
Maybe I just missed it (in which case I apologise), but if you want to rank for a particular phrase, you really need to include that phrase on your pages. You have a lot of pages with not a great deal of text on any of them, which doesn’t make the site look particularly authoritative in any given area, I’d have thought.
Thanks Molona, I’ll do some investigation to find out which is used the most often. I wouldn’t have thought that the plural form would make such a difference.
Actually I did a short investigation and I noticed that except one domain, which included the keyword in its name, all other domains have got mostly “abogados” in their texts or titles.
I’ll work harder on this but anyway it is worrying that it is not working at this stage whereas other domains I published came up fine very early after they went live. Also reviewing the search result I saw a couple of websites I did years ago listed prior to that one where I didn’t put that much effort in SEO.
Sometimes I am thinking that this could be a side effect of the blocking I had in my robots.txt file before the website went live disallowing access to any crawler. I removed it as soon as we went live.
