          Hi all

          We face this problem for www.residentiebosrand.be, which is well programmed, added to Google Search Console and indexed. Web pages are shown in Google for site:www.residentiebosrand.be. Website has been online for 7 weeks, but still no search results.

          Could you guys look at the update below?

          Thanks!

            Hi Nigel,

            The website https://www.residentiebosrand.be/ is supposed to be ranking on 'residentie bosrand'. I know authority plays a big part in ranking on keywords. But other sites which are not as relevant as this one rank higher.

            Do we just have to wait for the website to rank on this keyword?

              I think if you are going to ask a question like this them be specific what the problems are. We all spend a lot of time trying to help people and are then made to feel bad because we haven't understood the question.

              Also, it's in a language I can't speak.

              So post up a few keywords and the pages you expect to rank for and maybe we can see what the problem is.

              Cheers

              Nigel

                Do understand that a lot more goes into determining search results than just indexation of the words on a web page.  Certainly, G uses those words to understand what search terms the site is relevant for but other factors are in play too--like authority, as in your site's authority and that of your competitors.

                Among other things, authority takes into account the site's age, backlinks and engagement history and those are factors on which a new site can't easily out-compete older, more established sites--even if the older sites are not dialed into exactly the same search terms.

                  Hi guys,

                  Don't get me wrong. The site is indexed and Google shows search results. The actual question here is why the website is not ranking on the keywords it's supposed to be ranking: 'residentie bosrand'. How come we don't find the website in the search results, while these are the main keywords on the website's URL, page, ... ?

                  Best regards.

                    It's coming back with 25 results and quite a few PDF files.

                      Conversal, it would be helpful if you could provide a couple of search terms that you think the site should be showing up in the search results for but isn't.

                        Hi Conversal

                        There are search results - they are just not showing in SEMrush and Google takes a while to report them

                        Regards

                        Nigel
