          Hi Moz'ers,

          Could you help me with something I cannot seem to figure out by myself.

          In June 2017 my company started a rebranding campaign. We've changed our brand name and launched a new website: https://spotler.com.

          Everything is going fine, but if you Google our brand name "Spotler" our website doesn't show up. How can it be? Our domain authority is 38.

          It would be wonderful if you could help me. Let me know if you need more information.

          Best,

          Simone

            Simone,

            I've meant to set the configuration in Google search console, going to: search traffic -> international configuration. There go to the country tab and select your country.

            Best luck.

            GR.

              Hi Gaston,

              Thanks for your help! I've added a hreflang to the site, is that what you mean with configuring the language in GWT?

              Best,

              Simone

                Hello Simone,

                I think this is a problem of regional targetting.

                Well you are definetelly indexed. I get 290 results with site: search.
                What i can see is that you have a gTLD and you want to rank for netherlangs. Have you configured the language in Search Console?
                Cant see it from here, have you redirected the old site to the new one? That might help a little.

                Let me know if those already done, in order to dig further.

                Best luck.
                GR.

                    Have you set up a Google + account? - https://www.google.com/business/

                    Set one up and fill in all your company details, photos etc.

                    then verify your domain on it.

                    Also get a your address verified by having a Google postcard sent (or sometimes you can do it via a landline)

                    Then get a couple of reviews.

                    Get the above sorted and it should show up in no-time!

                      Hi I am working on a site indianhomeappliances.in that for search terms such as 'best washing machine in india' appears near the top of the 2nd page of Googl for url https://indianhomeappliances.in/best-washing-machine-in-india/ When looking at what is listed on the 1st page for 'best washing machine in india' I would appreciate any advice/guidance on what else could be done to give the site a final push to get on the 1st page of search results. I have made more than 60 backlinks along with sites from competitor analysis via moz for this page Looking at the sites that are on the 1st page I cant understand why many of them are ranking higher than me? Any insight and plan of attack would be most appreciated from any  search experts on the forum. My website is 2.5 months old. Many Thanks

                      How to rank my website in Google UK?

                      Hi guys, I own a London based rubbish removal company, but don't have enough jobs. I know for sure that some of my competitors get most of their jobs trough Google searches. I also have a website, but don't receive calls from it at all. Can you please tell me how to rank my website on keywords like: "rubbish removal london", "waste clearance london", "junk collection london" and other similar keywords? I know that for person like me (without much experience in online marketing) will be difficult task to optimize the website, but at least -  I need some advices from where to start. I'm also thinking to hire an SEO but not sure where to find a trusted company. Most importantly I have no idea how much should pay to expect good results? What is too much and what is too low? I will appreciate all advices.

                      Will changing Google Places address hurt rankings?

                      I have a client transferring ownership of their service business (photo booth rental). The current listed address will change, so my main concern is preserving the rankings during the transition. Should I change the Google Local listing to a new physical address, or change it to "serve a surrounding area"? It seems best to set as "serving a surrounding area", but I know Google is really weird about making local listing changes. I've seen and heard about countless listings falling completely off the map after being updated. Any advice appreciated.

                      Why am I not ranking in Google, but I am in Yahoo and Bing?

                      The website in question is: www.stbarthexclusives.com Our keywords are currently ranking for both Bing and Yahoo, but we're not appearing anywhere on Google. The website is being crawled successfully, but we still don't have any results. I hoping somebody can point me in the general right direction to fix/correct this problem. Additionally, there's a decent amount of "rel=canonical tags" on the website. If that helps your evaluation. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

                      My own brand name disappeared from google?

                      Hi, about 20-30 hours ago my own brand name disappeared from google results (We redirected old domain to new one about a month ago) My website is: www.websiteplanet.com If you search for Website Planet in google you will not find our homepage any longer.
                      Not only that the brand name disappeared but we also dropped in rankings and lost about %50 of the organic traffic we had. It's important for me to say that we have never done any sort of blackhat or even greyhat SEO, at all. I could probably come up with many ideas of why it happened but maybe one of you mozzers already experienced this and could enlighten me. Will really appreciate any kind of response/help. Thanks.

                      New Site: Use Aged Domain Name or Buy New Domain Name?

                      Hi,
                      I have the opportunity to build a new website and use a domain name that is older than 5 years or buy a new domain name. The aged domain name is a .net and includes a keyword.
                      The new domain would include the same keyword as well as the U.S. state abbreviation. Which one would you use and why? Thanks for your help!

                      I have a .com site but I am only ranking good on google for Canada and not the USA.

                      We are located in Canada but sell our products world wide. We are ranking ok on google.ca but are not in the top 50 on google.com. Is it due to my ip address? Is there any tips that you can give me to help up my rating for google.com. Any info you can provide me with will be amazing. Thanks,
