Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Overall traffic is very less We need to improve the ranking of keywords so that we can get good traffic.

1. There is no major technical problem, most of the on-page stuff has already been done.

2. We are also doing SEO and keep an eye on competitors activities too.

3. There is no manual penalty. All things/factors in webmaster tool/search console is fine.

Do you see any on-page issue with the website?

Rankings for almost all the keywords are not improving and going down, not sure why.

Can anyone please suggest me what's wrong with my site and what can i do to improve the overall performance of the site.I would really appreciate your help.

Hi David,

I am also facing the same issue.

Thanks Martin.

Just one more question: What if we create a blog as **pestcontrolnyc.blogspot.com **and we create a few backlinks for this new blog then is it possible to rank this blog for related keywords (such as pest control nyc) as it contains the keyword in the URL itself? Will this help or not? Please advise.

Hi All,

What Should be the URL of third party blog for my website. Lets say if i have a website xyz.com (which provide pest control services in New York City) and I want to create third party blogs on platforms like blogspot, weebly etc so should i create the blog url as xyz.blogspot.com or i can use a keyword in the blog URL such as pestcontrolnyc.blogspot.com?

Which URL would be the best as per Google's guidelines.

Note: I have already have a blog within the domain as xyz.com/blog/ and i do weekly posting on this blog. But at the same time i want to create 1-2 third party blogs to get some backlinks from other sources.
