Basic SEO Problems

Hi, i'm newbie in this forum so sorry in advance for any mistakes.

I run this site with a friend, we only been around for about 5 months, in this time we were able to make 130 short posts every one of them translated in two languages with their separate URL. First of all, we are amateurs in SEO and web creation matters, also, almost everything in the web is custom made.
The situation in terms of organic search is this:

- Normal day we make 15-10 impressions with the exception of spikes of 200 that can happen 2 times per month

- Clicks below 10 per month

- No relevant issues in GWT

- We made all the usual recommended things to improve SEO: sitemap, image tags, mobile friendly, etc

- The data of impressions/clicks is the same from 3 months ago when we have half the content we have now, no evolution at all

Is this normal for a young website? We have run out of ideas, any clue will be appreciated. Here is the link

        I used a few websites to check your site and manually looked through pages. I barely found any content in it. Maybe you could write some articles on the different bands on your site and make sure you got your keyword in it.

        Build some backlinks to your site too because you dont have many

      If you want to see how search engines look at your site, check the the attached image file.

      No Content.

      Before crafting your onsite content, you need to know what keywords or "search terms" you think your site will provide the answers/information to a searcher. It looks like you are a music discovery site/tool, you can start from there. You can use Google Keyword Planner to check on other keyword permutations related to your service or "music discovery tool".

      Craft your onsite content base on the keywords you will be using then put the proper title tags and meta descriptions to allow people and search engines to know what your site is all about once you appear on the search results page.

    First of all, pretty cool site.

    But it seems like you do not have a lot of backlinks to it. But more importantly than that your website's title is just viberaid, so the number of searches for viberaid may be low, hence you feel there's nobody visiting your site.

    Add your main keyword phrases as part of your title! And other related phrases into your meta description and tags at least for on-site optimization.

      I thought that google didn't used meta description anymore. I'm already building backlinks, does someone know good ways to do this with out directories or begging the admins? Most of the popular method seems a little bit sloppy.

      Thanks for the advice.

    Hi friend

    Add meta tags to all your pages. Find out the best suitable yet searched Title for your site and add it to the home page. If you are looking for more keywords add titles on all pages. I havent totally examined your site.. The first thing i always check for is meta tag which is missing and the most important thing is TITLE. (Character count should be limited to 60)

    Please add it and work for those keywords.. Create back links on that keywords you will get results in a minimum of 3 months.

    Hope this helps.

    It seems that the Keyword Research was not good. Check again what keywords you want to rank for and don't forget to post UNIQUE content too regularly!
