Dear all:
I hope someone here can give me some advise , thanks.
My site is about 1 year old and recently listed in DMOZ. I have about 80+ of pages each targeting low competition keywords(about 100 searches) with moderately high KEI(>20). Yahoo shows that I have 214 backlinnk. My articles was accepted and published in few articles and ezine directory.

I did all the legitimate SEO and my pages are useful contents. However, I still do not rank well and in fact, only getting small fraction of visitors from the SE(less than 100 daily).

Why do I still don't rank well? What should I do?

Thanks

Hard to say without seeing your website.

You could put in a request in the "Site Review" section.

How many total pages of content do you have?
How often do you publish new content?
Do you have any higher ranking keywords related to your niche?

Do you see search engine crawlers like Googlebot in your website traffic?

Check your website IP is in banned list by search engines.

If you can post a link, somebody on this forum can give good advice.

Hard to say without taking a look at your site. You could still be stuck in the sandbox filter. Just depends on lots of factors. You can PM your URL and I could take a look or post it here for all of us to critique.

Did you recently do anything that warrants a big spike?

For example: Adding a bunch of link exchanges all at a time or doing major site changes (including major meta tag changes).

Google hates spikes of anything - they are always suspicious of Optimizations that are just for rankings.
