Pages/Site Not Ranking on Google Results As Expected About 8 months ago, we set up RankMath Pro on one of our sites, and generally kept an eye on how we ranked on Google search results.

However, this past month I noticed that we’re not even on the first three or four pages on Google search results. Any ideas on what could have gone wrong? Perhaps I did... 3 3 replies

Helping a tour guide friend with local SEO A friend is asking for help with local SEO & optimising their GBP. I've helped local businesses targeting local audiences a ton but with my friend's audience, it'll be from people in other locations and countries. I tried doing the opposite and looking for tour guides in other cities and can see the local packs still show up albeit without the call buttons immediately showing.
