Things that I already I did:
- on page SEO, meta, alt text, keywords density
- check page speed google
- link building (check using majestic)

but my ranking is not rank up, even my competitor their on page seo, page speed, trust flow (check with majestic) is not that good like mine?

        How long your page/post been published?
        Google will take time to index your website, as well as in ranking your website to appear in search results, also depending on the competition of targeted keywords.

        It doesn't need to be unique rather it should be what people is searching for. So please make sure that you did enough keyword research and if possible put relevant keywords on title and in tags.

        You can improve site speed with the wordpress plugin 'Autoptimize'. If you use it disable minify js/css setting to your other cache plugin (if you use one). Check loading speed with 'Tools pingdom' and reduce website's loading elements (especially javascript). Don't expect to get better ranking with faster loading speed (that applies to sites that already have some good ranking). I am in the same position with you.

        Focus on the concept of Google for SEO which is 'Unique Content'. Make each post very unique with respect to competition and make your post very long, 800-2000 words. Include main keywords in the right on page SEO elements of the post. Research keywords with Adwords Keywords Planner. If a keyword phrase of 3 words can get only 50 hits per month (in the first Google position), then find another similar keywords phrase that can get much more hits.

        Check the SEO status of your page with Woorank. Check if you have Crawl errors with Google Search Console (if they are many, then fix them). Check and compare the ranking of keywords in Google Search Console per country and try to understand why there are differences in ranking. Check daily changes of your website and keywords ranking with Serpstat (free for 10 keywords).

    Page speed really is not a ranking factor. Trust Flow is a 3rd party metric. It is not used by Google or any other search engine.

    And even if Trust Flow was a factor, it tells you nothing about the relevancy of links and their relationship to your particular search term. Facebook has a higher Trust Flow than most websites. It doesn't mean it is going to outrank pages for every search term.

    If competitors are outranking you, 99.9% of the time it is because they have better links than you do.

    Hi, Its not only depends on on page SEO. SEO is the combination of both on-page and off-page activities. may be your competitor have more referring domain they concentrate on off page activities so in my point of view you concentrate on both on-page and off-page activities then you get good result.

    you provided zero info....
    How can anyone make a determination with nothing?

    Lets assume your SEO efforts were the highest quality on the
    planet which means squat dirt if other factors are not right...

    Who is doing your seo?
    A poor SEO provider is someone that submits your site to
    the exact same sites over and over, and over. A true SEO provider
    will get backlinks case by case in other words, niche backlinks...

    What theme are you using?
    (has the theme been tested to convert? or did you just
    ran across some piece of crap on theme-forest; Even just
    having a bad theme can cause you doom for future sales....

    Who is writing your content? writing yourself? are you paying
    something like $1/100 words or $30-$50 per 1000 word article.
    (poor quality content is never good, and can cause bad results)

    How long has the site been up? Even the best site using the
    best seo can take several months before SEO kicks in....
    So when was SEO applied? You know SEO is never ending
    right? If you do not maintain quality SEO, then your rankings
    will start sliding anyways, mainly downwards....

    How about your analytics? What does your analytics look like?

    How about your bounce rate? a 90% bounce rate is not likely
    to cut it with google unless you have high traffic volumes
    that do not include google....

    What type of site do you have? Affiliate, Sex toys, Dooms
    day world ender missile? a bad niche can destory your site..
    why? google knows the traffic going to your site, and if your
    visitors leave in 3 seconds, then something is wrong, or the
    visitors are not finding what they are looking for.
    (you will have high bounce rate, and rankings will tank.)

    or should we have to guess about all this?

    In my opinion, those having no experience should not even setup
    a site for obvious reasons, most people setup ghetto looking
    sites, apply some SEO, and wonder why their rankings is not going up....
    (however, this may not be you, what do I know? have no info to go by....)

    IMO, Trust Flow is not an indication of good rankings. I have a site with
    decent trust flow, and I have almost no ranking. Trust flow is an indication
    that google trusts your site compared to others that have zero trust...

    show me something that says google guarantees you good rankings
    because you have high trust flow, then I will admit I was wrong....
    trust flow is just another factor among 200+ other factors that google uses.
    not only that, trust flow is a metric generated by moz, and who is to
    say they are even accurate? Google does not release this type of data,
    and only google knows your true metrics, which they do not share...

    Hey buddy, you have to understand some of important factors when you do SEO on Google. Building on-page SEO or backlinks won't work at all for today.

    You should understand the following factors if you want to rank high.
    1. Use Google Search Console to find out which keywords have already you've rank for.
    2. Build HIGH QUALITY links page rank between 5-10.
    3. Submit sitemap on your website and on Google search console.

    I think this will works perfectly.

    Finally remember to rank your website will take 6-8 months minimum.

      true dat.

      Last year I read a case study on a site.
      He said he outsourced the best people...
      he also claimed it took him 10-12 months in order to
      get his site making $500/mo and cost him around $5,000
      and from this, it would take him 10 months after that
      fact just to earn that money back. Even $500/mo sounds
      great, however, he would have to keep maintaining his site....
      If you stop maintaining your site, then your ranking will fall...
      (no matter how great your site is....)

    Maybe you simply made wrong choices from the start? How about your domain name? This is probably the first and worst mistake which people are made alongside with the wrong hosting. You can not build a house without a good floor, look on the things in that.

    Besides on page seo you must work at off page seo which helps a lot to
    develop your websites ranking .You should create quality content which
    improves your site relevance and authority and you should update your content regularly.You should also create relevant links within the text.

    They are ranking because they have more or better of more and better backlinks than you and others.

    Why advise they do that? You don't know what content they have on the site now.

    Why would you create content on other blogs?

    You need backlinks that don't have nofollow, from pages that don't have other outgoing links but have incoming links (the more, the better).

    Don't pay attention to this. High bounce rate can be really good (think adsense sites, why would they be punished for getting good results?).

    One of the best ways/methods to rank up your website is to use ;

    Keyword Phrases :--This is a phrase/word you think someone might type on search engines.

    Your keyword phrase should appear in your content and more especially in the first paragraph of your content .

    You could put all your energy alone one using this method and improve your site ranking.

    But don't overdo it , also don't make it look spammy or unnatural.

    Again , don't put a bunch of random unrelated words together.

    Though you're using keyword phrases to rank up your site ..Your content must be clear enough, also easy to read and understand.

    Thin content is described as content that adds little value for readers. It's generally published by webmasters who have read or heard that publishing content to their website is important, so they publish content for the sake of publishing content without much regard for its quality or value.
