Inconsistent ranking in Google

I have this problem regarding with a site that I have been working on for almost four months. It has inconsistent rankings, and its been so long, almost four months that I have been applying seo to the site. I have checked for duplicate title tags and the web developer was able to fix it.

But unfortunately, this did not made the ranking change, instead, it went down. What could be the problem?

Thank you very much!

Have you been doing both on-site SEO (tags, keywords etc) and off-site SEO (i.e. links and promotion) ???

I have done off site SEO, promotion and links. But I have checked the sites, it has keywords that I use when I did the off site SEO.

Were you checking google.com or a local variant? Or have you been using a DC-checker (which checks multiple Google datacenters in one go)?

I am checking using google.com.

Can you enlighten me more about "which checks multiple Google datacenters in one go". I have checked for duplicate contents and there were nothing but I do not know about Google datacenters.

First off, your site is still really new. You're likely to see natural fluctuation for a while longer.



I have a problem with this statement. "WHEN I DID the off site SEO" You don't do offsite seo once. This is an ongoing process. It's possible that Google saw your short spurt of link building as unnatural and now is shifting you to your appropriate rank.

Is it normal, I have doing off site optimization to the site for almost 4 months, yet the rankings are not high, and as I have said, its inconsistent, today it ranked 22nd, tomorrow it will rank 30th.



What I mean here is, when I started the off site promotion, I use the keywords already, but still today, when I use the keywords and search it in Google, still nothing shows.

I have done everything, directory submission, press release, blogs, comments on theme related sites, finding link partners. Im really out of options right now.....

Here are two links to check multiple data centers. The BERG is right , four months is peanuts in getting ranked for highly competitive KW, if your KW is easy or a long-tail phrase then I'd say just keep adding links and keeping the site clean and unique and for the user not specifically for Google.com.

(now the second is not working right now, its been down for a week two, but this happens often it will be back later, but link should be all you need anyways.

Hope this helps - with these tools you can see where you really stand.

Thank you dzine, THE BERG, and MadisonSEO for helping me out. I will try the links you have given me MadisonSEO. And I will look into it, how it can help.

It really bothers me, because its been like 4 months that Im working on the site. The keywords that Im targeting are not that competitive.

Again, thank you very much guys!

Hello again!

I just want to ask if there is a connection, because all the keywords that I am using, ranks in the first page in Yahoo. But in Google, its really inconsistent.

No connection what so ever between google and yahoo. NONE.
