why do I still not appear on Google after doing basic SEO?

Site URL: https://massage.delepoulle.com/

hello, I did a basic SEO with: 
- Site title
- SEO titles
- Page titles
- Images title

And yet I still don't appear in the Google search engine. What could this be due to? Do changes take time?

How long have you been publishing your website? It takes some time for Google to know about your website and start indexing

Also have you connect your website to Google search console and submit your sitemap there yet?

@makkmadaffakka Can you describe what you mean by "not appearing in Google"? If it is about specific search terms, please share that with us.

I can see that your site is indexed by Google. 

Hi @makkmadaffakka. Here are three quick high-level observations (this is not an exhaustive list). The contact button in the header is not functioning. There are branding inconsistencies across the Google Business page, website, social channels, etc. And while we don’t have the full context, it may be worth reconsidering the current subdomain approach before proceeding further.

Hi! Thanks for answering

I already published it some weeks ago.

Unfortunately I'm not able to connect it to Google Search Console... Don't know why...

Hi, thanks for answering!!

I'm surprised I'm not appearing for those terms "saumur" "massage" and "nadege delepoulle". I'm not even in the first page... However, those key words are everywhere on my website. 

Thank you for your help

hi, thanks!

contact button & inconsistencies will be fixed. 

What do you mean about reconsidering the current subdomain approach?

I just found that even my question on the forum is appearing before my website... I really don't get it...

There is no simple answer. However, having had a quick look at your name online, it seems like your name appears on various other websites.

The first thing to note is that SEO takes time, especially if this is a new website and if your SEO work was done recently. So it is not unusual to see that other websites rank above yours. At this point, Google knows and "trust" these websites more than yours. Part of it is time, part of it is getting authority, can you get linked from those websites for example?

The second thing, referring to your point about search terms, I don't see any mention of "nadege delepoulle" in any of your pages. Only as part of an email address in the footer.

If those search terms are what you are targeting, then I would look to have those words in your hero section or somewhere on your homepage. Or on the page that you want people to see when searching for those terms. Having them in your titles is not enough.

And there are other things that can be looked at, including what @collaborada mentioned above. Hope this helps.
