<title>Star Lighters: Personalised Refillable Cigarette Petrol Lighter</title>
In the robots line it says "noindex". That's your problem. My guess is that someone has clicked the wrong thing in the Yoast options for that page, because other pages on your site are not set to noindex.
Your homepage is set to "noindex", which means that Google will not crawl it. You need to allow search engines to index it. As you're using Wordpress you should first check Settings > Reading, then see if the box next to search engine visibility is ticked. It should NOT be ticked. If that's OK, check your home page in the admin panel. Look for the Wordpress SEO by Yoast section, and click the Advanced panel. Make sure the Meta Robots Index is set to "Index". Hopefully that should sort your problem.
It's the only page on that site with a review - I wonder if that might have something to do with it? I'll ask them to resize and smush the images but as you say, it's ranking for other keyword combinations, so that's likely not the root cause. It's a strange one.
The page has been live for a year. It is indexed by Google, as evidenced by this search: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=site:camphorpress.com+formosan+odyssey
No issues in Webmaster Tools either, that I can see.
I have a page that "should" be top 3 on Google - it's optimised (A on the Moz Pro page grader), it's the most relevant result (it's for an e-book, and the page is the publisher's page for the e-book). Other pages on the site for other books are top of the Google SERPs, and this page itself is top in Bing for the search phrase.
The page is https://camphorpress.com/books/formosan-odyssey/ and the keyphrase I want to rank for is "formosan odyssey" (with or without the quotes). Does anyone have any insight as to why it's not ranking in Google? Over-optimised? Duplicate content?
Many thanks.
