• I installed the plugin, made all the necessary changes, researched forum, did everything I could, I tried to help (and did not get – I was waiting more than 15 days and no response).
    My site is still not showing up in Google and would love to have a plugin creator response.

    Make sure that you have generated and submitted a sitemap to the Google Search Console: https://support.google.com/sites/answer/100283?hl=en

    If possible, include a blog on your site and keep creating fresh, unique and well-optimised content (e.g. blog posts with good keyword density, images with alt text, outbound links, etc.).

    Use sites like tools.pingdom.com and webpagetest.org to ensure your site is not too slow to load. Where possible, optimise for speed: gzip, optimise images, cache, CDN, etc.

    Search using site:yoursite.com to see what pages have been indexed.

    Remain patient ??

    It’s been two and my site does not appear on Google.
    What else should I do?

    Hi @felipecaire,

    Almost a year has passed since your review. Are you still using our plugin? If not, we’ve made a ton of changes to Yoast SEO and would like to invite you to give the plugin a new try.

    If you want to learn more about the plugin before installing it, we feel our knowledge base is the best place to start.

    Thanks!

    Dear Ben,

    I will be very grateful if you can help me.
    I am using the plugin, and my site is still pretty much deleted in the web searches.
    Please visit:

    Thank you very much!

    Hi @felipecaire,

    We have written an extensive article about best SEO practices. You can read it here: The definitive guide to higher rankings for WordPress sites. We feel that this is the best place for you to start.

    Ranking higher in Google isn’t something that’s explained in a few minutes, unfortunately. Neither can it be done by simply installing a plugin. There are over 200 ranking factors Google takes into account. Our plugin takes care of all the technical optimization for SEO. All that’s left is to create awesome content. Our plugin helps you with this as well. We believe in holistic SEO.

    If you want us to take a closer look at your website, you can also hire us.

    We would like to ask you to review your review. If you feel the plugin is all bad, by all means, leave it as 1* review. But if you continue using the plugin, I think we’re doing a bit better than that, don’t you?

    Hi Ben,
    I change the review.
    I also want to hire you.
    But I do everything I cant, studying SEO. Hours and Hours reading and listening a lot of documents.
    I still does not understand why my domain does not appear at list on the first page.

    If you can take some seconds, just look!

    My domain is SAILINGANTACTICA, I publish almost a week new posts, and lot of other things. And if you search for “sailing antarctica”, where is my page?

    Hi @felipecaire,

    Google takes over 200 ranking factors in consideration. One of them is page speed. You can take a look at the page speed results from Google’s test here: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=www.sailingantarctica.com

    As you can see, the scores for your website are in red, while they should be in green. You can start fixing your SEO by fixing the issues listed there. Unfortunately, we can’t provide any support on that, you will need a web developer for that if you are unable to do so yourself.
