Ranking

I have tried to rank for a certain keyword for 12 months now on my website. I see new websites ranking for it even on the second page within 2 or 3 months. I have built quality topical authority around it, included alt texts on pictures, some URL slugs include the keyword, H1, H2 & H3 titles have the keyword, I have backlinks with anchor texts mentioning the keyword, internal linking, my website speed is A. What am I doing wrong? What major thing am I not doing? submitted by /u/Mindless_Lettuce_921 [link] [comments] from The SEO Authority https://ift.tt/Jt4SeKv

How to improve domain authority?

I manage SEO for a few clients, and am running into a ceiling with regards to ranking. I have optimized just about all there is to optimize. GBP, service-area pages with unique identifiers/FAQs, schemas, internal linking, citations, backlinks, review automation, indexing, and now I am at a loss for what to do next to increase rank. My incorrect assumption was "build service area pages and the page will eventually rank #1" but I have hit a ceiling where the pages are not ranking any higher. So I am curious: what activities are you employing to increase rank either across the domain or locally to specific keywords sans all of the activities that I listed above? submitted by /u/magicmikewazowksi [link] [comments] from The SEO Authority https://ift.tt/Lcu0BXo

Unwanted backlinks - Should I get rid of them?

I recently launched my website and it is only 1 month old and when I check my websites DR in ahrefs, it also shows that I have some 500+ backlinks. I have never submitted my website to any directories or something so I don't know where these backlinks came from. Ahrefs also marks these website as scammy who has my backlinks. I want to know if google will penalize or think that I am trying to manipulate google SERPs if it stays as it is or should I make the effort to go and ask each of these spammy backlinks to be removed? submitted by /u/Brief-Tax2582 [link] [comments] from The SEO Authority https://ift.tt/Ov1Z0KR
