    I am developing SEO strategy for my client with niche fashion, mainly on leather jacket or jaket kulit in Indonesian language. I am using WordPress CMS and Yoast plugin to manage on page parameter. On third week of November (around November 15, 2018), I am starting to build offpage link to my site. I am using different type of backlins, including:

    • web 2.0.
    • socmed: google plus, fanspage fb, etc
    • blog comment
    • etc

    My goals is my client's web will have a better ranking on Google. But, when i tracked it using kwfinder, my client's web disappear from page 4 of Google till now.

    Do you have suggestion to resolve my problem? Please advise me to improve seo onpage on https://enjoyleather.id.

    The problem with building backlinks any other way than organically and authoritatively is that Google considers it spammy and can remove the site from SERP. Sites will get a quick boost, but then get dropped when Google discovers what's going on. Black hat SEOs make a lot of money doing this and then lose their clients when Google takes actions. There are no shortcuts to getting better SERP results.

    Thanks @vfontjr for replying me. Oh... no.. I didn't use tools to link building still categorized as spam? Hmm... i have to learn the right way to do this.

    So, according to your experience, what steps i have to do to recover this problem?

    Thanks

    First thing to do is go to Webmaster Tools and see if Google has placed a manual action on the site. Second thing is stop building links and go remove the ones you have built. You will find more answers on forums like Moz. It will be a slow road to recovery in any case. If the site url is a new one, you should consider abandoning it and starting over with a new url.

    Link building hasn't worked for about the last ten years.

    Good luck!
