Home Page Not Ranking

[sabashahid]

Hi I have this website <snip> and I have been running this for like 8 years and now people are coming to my site on daily bases but the thing is that the keywords are not working against my homepage but other keywords for other pages are working fine. Please tell me if anyone know what is wrong.

There can be a few different reasons to explain why your homepage is not ranking but the subpages are getting traffic from Google.

Option #1 - Your homepage keyword is too competitive and your site isn't strong enough yet. The keywords for the subpages are not competitive so site can more easily rank for these terms.

Option #2 - Your homepage is over optimized. Google has many penalties and filters to police the manipulation of their search results. If Google sees your site doing something that they judge to be too much, they will not reward you positive ranking points and instead assign your url negative points if not just ban your url.

Option #3 - There is some technical issues like a noindex tag or something else that is preventing Google from crawling that page.

There are other options that can be causing this situation but IMHO these are the more common reasons that cause this problem

Which CMS are u using, cause on some wp templates there are textblocks that closed from google by tags, for example.
I have web-site that was made by <snip> on clear html+css and there are no issues with google index and the other one based on wp broqlyn template that is still not parsed by google bots.
