      My site, findyogi.com, isn't ranking well in google SERPs. For some good content and matching keyword, my pages are ranking 200+ whereas other sites that have similar or lower authority are ranking in top 10. I must be doing something fundamentally wrong but can't seem to figure out what.

      I am not looking at ranking 1 on google right now but my pages don't appear even on page 2-4.

      Sample Keyword- "Samsung galaxy s4 price in india" .

      Matching page - www.findyogi.com/mobiles/samsung/samsung-galaxy-s4-b94a37/price

      Please help.

        With Open Site Explorer, I compared your web-page with 4 randomly selected competitors from Page 1 of Google. Results are here:

        https://www.diigo.com/item/image/4380n/pk93?size=o

        From the results, it's obvious that your Page Authority and Domain Authority are lower than your competitors. You just need more good quality external followed back-links from good quality, trusted websites.

          Thanks for this.

          my site definitely weaker when compared to top 10. What I am failing to understand is why does it rank at 200+. My links are better than almost all links from rank 11-200.

            I would call it a great startup... simply fascinate me!

            Ok, I checked your link profile and it seems clean, websites SEO areas are not weaker... just a suggestion if there is a possibility try to shorten your URLs as it will gonna hurt you in the longer run!

            Problem: I didn’t really figure out the exact problem but I am sure that there is no penalty case or something.... I believe you should continue to do what you are doing and after some crawls it is going to be back on 3 to 4<sup>th</sup> pages from several different key phrases.

            • I need help on how best to do a complicated site migration. Replacing certain pages with all new content and tools, and keeping the same URL's. The rest just need to disappear safely. Somehow.
