February 10, 2013 at 8:28 pm in reply to: Looking For Feedback On Why My Posts Aren't Ranking #19500Chris2FourMember
Hey Guys,
Thanks so much for all the great feedback on this matter.
@Bill Murray with regards to switching up my SEO plugin from AIOSEO to Yoast’s WordPress SEO. I've actually used Yoast’s WordPress SEO plugin on another one of my newer sites and I was very impressed with it's functionality I guess, my biggest fear with regards to switching the plugin on the Heads Up Motorsports site is "What if something goes wrong?". Even though the site is far from perfect it certainly does work for us and I'd hate to switch SEO plugins then things start to tank!
Any thoughts or feedback on this?
@RonnyMac thank you for your input on this matter and even with my little knowledge of SEO I know that your right but as Bill said we're just a an Automotive Repair Shop in South Carolina with a specialty for working with BMW, VW and Audi's. How can we hope to generate quality back links for our content? because as you can see our company "Blog" is really just an online diary for the work we do, and although this is wonderful for potential customers once they find our site to see what we actually do, how can we tailor our content to get other sites to show an interest?Thanks again guys.
Chris.
Chris2FourMemberThanks everyone for the feedback so far.
@Bill Murray I'm working through your suggestions, one thing I can't quite get my head around is your comment "Your posts don’t seem to be outputting a robots meta tag." this is correct and I took a look at one of my posts and then compared to a post on the Studiopress site but what I can't figure out is how to correct this?
As mentioned I am using the All In SEO plugin and there doesn't seem to be an option for Robot Meta Tags?
Thanks,
Chris.Chris2FourMemberAnitac, we've been "blogging" / writing posts for this site for several years now and the site does rank well which I'm very pleased about but as I stated above I've only just started to realize that the site has been ranking well because of it's pages not actually because of the posts.
My first concern of-course is "what is wrong with the site, that none of the post are been indexed and ranked with google correctly" the second concern is that if the site is doing so well with just the pages how much better could it be doing if the posts were actually being ranked by the search engines!
Another interesting note is that even though the posts do not seem to be being found on the search engines the images "which are optimized" within the posts are actually ranking really well if you do an google image search.
Chris2FourMemberYes just checked and it is set to allow site to be indexed. So this shouldn't be the issue.
