Hi There!
We've built whatphone.com.au with SEO at the top of the list but things are not going as expected.
Yes, there's still a lot of work to do, but I was hoping to get some guidance on what to do next to make sure we keep the right focus.
This is what we've done to date:
-
Added lots of unique and relevant content, particularly to our blog (and will continue to do so on a weekly basis)
-
Ensured internal linking is strong
-
Optimised each product page around product name (and relevant internal links pointing to it)
-
Ensured the code is clean (ok, we are not a 100% but in a good place)
-
URL structure, metadata, page titles, file names and alt tags following best practice
-
Named the company and registered our domain around one of main keywords we are currently targeting "what phone"
What we're working on:
-
Link building
-
Site speed
-
Social signals
-
Rich media (videos, more images)
Not a bad effort right? No love from an organic traffic perspective Ok, the site / domain is no older than 2 months old, it's a very competitive industry, and no inbound links yet, but come on!
Questions:
-
Are there any benefits of engaging external providers to help with link building? I'm talking about outsourcing from elancer or similar.. Or is this playing with fire?
-
Have we missed something obvious here?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
PS: we currently have some issues with our pricing tables, but will fixed as soon as possible..
