After stalking this sub for a while it seems pretty well accepted that DA and backlinks are pretty essential for google placement, plus good readability and keywords.
I run a newish website (8 days) for a chiropractor office, and use yoast for SEO on Wordpress. My yoast symbol is green, and im targeting a keyword “chiropractor clinic city name”. I checked my backlinks and I have about 150 total altho only 5 DA.
Things ive done according to my research:
• Create socials with links • Include keywords in Meta, slugs, title, H1, H2, H3, first paragraph, alt text of pictures, multiple times thru page in accordance with Yoast • green readability • Backlink with some established blogs in my area • Plenty of internal linking • submitted sitemaps to google search console • compressed images, lazy load to boost speed
However, when i go to google search and type “chiropractor office city”, my site is on the 4th page. I went and checked the backlinks and DA of the 1st and 2nd sites, and they have DA of 0 and maybe 15 backlinks each. Their page also seems to have less keywords, and is shorter with less pictures. I thought it was my page age, but i looked it up and age does not affect ranking.
Any suggestions on what i should do next, or how the other ones are ranking so high with no DA, no backlinks and barely any keywords?
