A quick SEO audit of this site shows some big things missing. Do you have any "SEO controls" or such in the software that hosts this site? Basically, there is no H1 set and the site lacks any meta description. Page titles, H1 and the page meta description are all big things Google tries to understand. H1 being 'headline size1' - the biggest. The site is headlined in H2 only. You want a quick job how much? I'll help out - no need for compensation. But I am not familiar with the forum software - I can try to sort through the issues though.

Reply from host Your site is already SEO optimized, however to raise your ranking you need to post content daily and encourage posts and discussions, this will probably be why google hasn't already found your site in another thread i could have them do anything i pay for it The last part is sort of correct - fresh content, correctly formatted to be seen by Google is key. It needn't be daily. And the google-hating-you X factor can't be discounted either. Still, I think the best bet would be to have the very first forum be STRICTLY football-related and with reasonable thread titles. All other general stuff can be in the second-listed and further down forums. Try that for a while and see how your site traffic is. Does the forum software give you access to analytics?

Ragu, Bing and whoever else makes this place run.
You guys have kept the lights on way longer than anyone could have ever dreamed. You owe us nothing.
Whatever makes your life easier is fine by me. Google might hate you guys more than that Damore nerd. There is no shame in going back to enjoying your lives.

Google might hate you guys more than that Damore nerd. There is no shame in going back to enjoying your lives. This. What almost four years? Who’d of thunk? You guys are great! Some homo. I don’t want to see this place go away because I read it every day,multiple times per day, mostly for the lols. But if it ever became too much, we could always go back and repopulate the hamper at JI? There is literally no one there, we would have the run of the place!

Perhaps the Jets will be interesting again... Really really interesting...

Well - even JUST doing the thing, where mods post and or clean up a few thread titles (per day) - just getting some actual indexable content would probably give this site a large boost in traffic. I don't think the cursing or boobs are really an issue for Google (there's plenty and worse on Reddit); that's more an issue for AdSense - which might have some blowback for Google but it's not really the problem of this site. Put short, the problems of this site can be summarized as: 1) Google mostly pretends it doesn't exist and doesn't understand it is a Jets fan forum 2) The lack of a monetization partner Solutions are: 1) Generate at least SOME indexable content that 'works' with Google 2) Find a monetization partner If that basic part works, then the rest can be worried about later. You have an interview 10am sharp in the sauna with Rags and Bing. Please come naked. How close will I be to the sauna?

Sure Issue #1 - is Google indexing this site? Google has their own view of the 'web' - like a phone book they'll grant some businesses full-page ads and others will just get a single line. The amount of importance they give you is related to how deeply they index your site - basically how much of your content do their robots bother to scan. If the answer is 'not much' then you web site is going to have a hard time generating traffic. Looking at this site's Google index - it's fairly shallow: www.google.com/search?source=hp&ei=nYusWuCMMYyzgge15rroBg&q=site%3Anewyorkjetshampur.com&oq=site%3Anewyorkjetshampur.com&gs_l=psy-ab.3...1035.12938.0.14155.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0..0.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.JA_dwqWLd-gLess than 2000 pieces of content indexed by Google - and if you look at WHAT that content is, almost none of it is football or Jets related. Top headlines in search are: newyorkjetshampur.com/help

I am not sure WHY Google is doing this but this threads may be getting the most commenting so Google starts to 'think' that that is what this site is about. Which leads to the second problem - Google doesn't seem to know or care that this site is a NYJets fan forum. The site is buried on direct searches for it: www.google.com/search?q=new+york+jets+fan+forum&ei=rIysWoTSDcrm_QaRpLu4Bg&start=20&sa=N&biw=1295&bih=759And shows up on page two for related searches simply by luck - because one of the navigation terms on the site is "forum" TL;DR - Google is probably suppressing this site's web presence either because they don't like it or are legitimately confused about it. If you want more traffic, you'll need to find a way around that situation. They don't like it. They are fucking us. On purpose they views and hits on other threads all football related are 20 times higher as well as the funny pic thread they would senser the FUCK outta this place. go o g le hates the first 2 ademdants and especially the first one. they would kill us all and dump us in the same hole in a nanosecond given the chance. prob not even burn us.

My way around it is This year i will personally be on tbe Twitter account and be trolling the fuck out of patriot fans and other assholes daily. As well as being my funny aggressive self. If i can get 20000 followers on twitter and be banned 6 times because of bullshit and always rebuild from scratch i can do it for the Hampur. I'll make people hate us so much they will have to come here. Yeah Google is the fcking worst - no one realizes until you try to post content that runs afoul of their "guidelines" and then they go Dikembe Mutombo on you and - poof - you practically cease to exist on the internet. Fck Google. There is def demand for a forum like this one - I think it's just hard for people to find this place. And you don't have to play Google's game really. Just find a monetization partner that you can work with - and I guess at least I would think about having the first listed forum here be mostly for threads with legit football-oriented titles. Mods can move more 'challenging' thread titles to the second forum. I have no idea how Google chooses to index forum site material but there is evidence that they look at the first-position content for relevance. If you keep the first forum 'cleaner' you'll probably get some Google juice whether they like it or not. Honestly I feel like this site is the last haven of free speech.... pretty much anywhere I know of. I could see a demand if ppl knew tbh. and not just Jets fans. ppl sick of the NFL in general. Basically anyone but pats* fans who has common sense and eyes in there head

Yes. Do it. Just get the parameters in writing.
This is a nice place to hang out. The only problem is that there is just not enough traffic, which results in a lack of fun posts/ideas. Best part of the JI heyday was all the various idiots chiming in and creating a buzz.

Best part of the JI heyday was all the various idiots chiming in and creating a buzz. This is kinda where I’m at too. I'm at the point where we might as well start a Whatsapp group. I haven’t been posting or visiting much. Partly because of work but also because you all bore me except for a few. There I said it.
