      I've worked extremely hard re-ranking for the key word "kayak fishing" after our site migration and panda/penguin our site www.yakangler.com was lost in the doldrums. I couldn't find us on any of the results page 1 thru page 64.

      The good news is we have managed to make it to page 3 for the past month but I feel like we have hit a wall. I can't seem to get any more moment in my SERP for "kayak fishing" Google US.

      Anyone have any recommendations on what I should do to move us up more? We have good content that is updated daily, an active community and forum.

      site: www.yakangler.com

      key word: kayak fishing

        Hi Mark,

        In my opinion this two steps should help you crash the wall 🙂

        1. Try to work with your Domain Authority rank
        2. You need more backlinks with your Anchor Text  "kayak fishing"

        You have few more links with Anchor Text "kayak fisherman" and you are on the second page.

        Regards,

          I agree with the above but make sure you have a varied back link profile, build some links for your brand, some naked URL's, some links to other pages etc.

          Keep your anchor text keyword % down as low as possible.

            Links are the answer.

            The question is:

            How many links are you getting from the quality content you produce?

            http://www.yakangler.com/articles/news/events/tournaments

            • How many of those people are bloggers?
            • Do you have backlinks from them?

            If the answer is no, go get the low hanging fruit!
