Stuck in getting traffic and ranking for my 3 month old site

[charming93]

Hi,

I am troubling in getting traffic for my website. It's been 3 months since the website was published but not even showing for brand name on SERPs. I have fixed all the On-page issues. Its has XML sitemap, robots.txt working well. I have set up a google webmaster and analytics as well.

Do you see visits from Googlebot?

not even showing for brand name on SERPs

What shows when you search for your brand name? I mean, which other sites / pages ?

Welcome to WebmasterWorld charming93!

Bootstrapping a site is often a nerve-wracking experience.

Did you publicize the existence of your site to other outlets like social media? To get traction in the SERPs you need visitors, but to get visitors you need visibility in the SERPs. Spreading your efforts to promote the site through more channels may help to get the first stream of visitors to convince Google's algorithms that your site is worth indexing.

It is showing on 28th position.
Yes, I've shared an infographic on social media, got one press release published and did few business listing tasks. Maybe I have to work on my on-site content.

Another thing I need to confirm that, I have two websites. one is my company's website and other is our product website that sells plugins for e-commerce. The verdict here is, should I mention the same address in product site as on my company's website? I have done google business listing for the company website only, not for the product website.

Welcome to Webmasterworld!

All above seems logical and usual efforts ... but do keep in mind that a few years back g (and a few other se's as well) have lowered (deprecated) IT and software on the web due to too much abuse by bad actors. Might be difficult to get g love unless there's a compelling reason (ie. MSM and others have found you and give a thumbs up).

Meanwhile, keep after it, three months is not long enough to actually be discovered on the web these days ... too much noise out there.

To be honest 3 months is nothing these days unless one has an all-singing and dancing website with a brand new product that everyone's going crazy about, anywhere between 6-12 months is "normal" for most sites.

As tangor noted above G's become very wary about "techie snake oil" sites.

Also, and being perfectly blunt, IME unless one has a magical product / service, G is utterly useless at driving any / much business enquiries these days for various reasons and not all of them G's fault I hasten to add.

As a 50+ years business owner during the last 30 years I have gone from the inception of The Net, first site 1993, saw the birth and then the explosion of enquiries and, being realistic, over the last 10 years watched it "normalise / retreat" back to traditional trade fairs and marketing methods.

Build it and they will come died a long, long time ago ... unless one has an enormous PPC budget or favoured greatly!

How many pages indexed your website has? How many unique articles it contains? How many categories there are on your website? What's your primary landing page/pages? Do you want to see your home/index page in the TOP 10 SERP, or it should be a particular blog post, or a category? How many words each article on your website contains?
