I'm becoming a little bit discouraged... I really love blogging but I don't see any traffic coming to my website and I don't think I'm raking in Google at all. Is there anything

I am fairly new and can't get Google to recognize my site at all. However if I post the exact same content on Google+ it will rank on page 1. Therefore I just put my website address at the end of the post on the Google+ page. I noticed I have to have to have the keyword twice up front on the Google+ page for it to rank like that. For example once like a title then once in the first sentence. Search for Bipolar disorder delusions and my post under Jane Cali will show up to see what I mean. My website is bipolarrelapseprevention.com.

Google will not recognize any new website that is less than 3 months old because a website's maturity plays into its recognition. The Google+ posting is not a real ranking. It is only showing up because you are logged into Google and you are more than likely not doing the search in a private browsing mode.

That being said, posting your website links on Google+ will help your website rankings, but only after a few months. By continuing to publish content on a consistent basis over the course of a few months, it will show Google that your website is worth being recognized.

Thanks for your feed back everyone! I plan to continue working hard and post one blog a day/finish the rest of my website and then begin building another one. Really going to put hard work into this because I am determined!

I wasn't aware it took so long to get ranked on google. I'll double check and make sure everything is working properly which to my knowledge it is.

I'm always open for suggestions and thanks for the encouragement!! Much appreciated!

I'm on the 4th level on training right now but plan to start over when I being with my second website to refresh my mind. It may be a while before I start my second website.

Your page looks sick man, keep it up. I am in the same boat as you. Still waiting to get ranked, on my second month now so starting to get nervous! lol! but this is the one constant i read all over the internet - it takes time.

patience.... sucks I know but that's the key + good content! lol!

keep your head up

Your earliest post that I see on your website is March 9th. It is way too soon for you to be ranking in Google. Give it a couple of more months and if your content is well written you will eventually rank faster. But it's too soon for you to expect any Google rankings at this point in time.

Like others have mentioned, it does take time. My blogs usually take about 3-4 months before they start ranking and getting traffic. Your website looks awesome just keep at it, I know things will start to take off sooner or later if you don't give up.

You can also give this a scan to make sure you're on the right track and not forgetting something:

Like Steve mentioned it does take some time. How long has the site been up? It took me a good three months to really start to see a flow of traffic and it has just kept building from that point.

If you have a new website it could take 3 to 4 months to start ranking because new websites lack authority with Google. Keep working at it by adding quality content and you'll eventually see increases in traffic.

How long have you been following the training Ben and how long has your site been live?

So, I signed up to be an Amazon affiliate and successfully made some links and posted them on my page. When you click them they go to the link and work perfectly but I emailed A

Is your affiliate ID in the link?

I clicked on the playdough - suggest you do the same. Is that your affiliate stuff in the link - check it very carefully.
