Hi,

I have a blog at fitmole.com

For some of my keywords, why is it that my the homepage of my blog shows up instead of the actual page.

For example, if I have a blog post that is trying to rank for "fat loss workout", why is it that my home page fitmole.com ranks before my actual blog post?

Can anyone explain this? Thanks

    Usually homepages rank easier than subpages. Are you sending links to either or both or not at all?

      Yeah but in general, shouldn't the post that you're targeting the keyword with be showing up before your homepage?

    See, changing your platform is a big change... this may temporarily affect your website rankings and other metrics.

    Don't worry, things will bounce back to normal soon.

    Check your website using Site command whether it has been deindexed or not.

    At this point of time, there is not benefit of filing reconsideration request.

    Initially you were ranking to actual page? In which search engine you are talking about?
