I’m having a weird issue and would love some help.
My site is live and indexed in Google Search Console. When I search for site:glaise.agency on Google, the pages show up properly — so it’s definitely indexed.
However, when I simply search “Glaise Agency”, my site doesn’t show up in the results at all.
What’s odd is I’m getting over 100 active users, so there’s traffic and activity.
Here’s what I’ve already done:
Site is published on Webflow and connected to a custom domain
Google Search Console confirms it’s indexed
I’ve submitted a sitemap
Meta title and descriptions are set properly
Page has the correct H1 and relevant copy
No indexing issues or errors reported
No penalties as far as I can tell
Anyone had this issue before or know what I can do to fix it?
Do I need backlinks or mention the brand name more prominently on the homepage?
When someone searches on Google, the results are divided into paid and organic results. Organic search results are unpaid and appear based on Google’s assessment of which pages are most relevant and reputable for that search query. While your site is properly indexed, you can improve your organic search visibility by:
Optimizing your page titles and meta descriptions in Webflow’s SEO settings
Creating high-quality, relevant content that matches your target keywords
Ensuring your site loads quickly and works well on mobile devices
Building quality backlinks from reputable websites
Using Webflow’s built-in SEO tools to structure your content properly
You can also use Google Search Console to monitor your site’s performance and identify areas for improvement in your search rankings.

You can see most of your indexed entries here, and they look clean.
Your homepage title begins with the words “Glaise Agency” which is good.
The rest is pagerank and domain strength, which is just about SEO work. More, better content, published regularly. Build backlinks through sharing and partnerships.
Never had issues before with previous projects and it’s the first time it happens.
I don’t really know what to do.
The only thing missing is backlinks (like social network links).
The funny thing is that this thread is appearing almost first when typing “glaise agency”.
There must be something wrong.
Any ideas who I could contact to find a permanent solution? I already posted something on the GG search console forum and they told me everything was going well in the console.
There’s nothing wrong, Google just doesn’t consider it relevant enough.
Branding alone usually isn’t enough, you’ll need to invest some time creating high-value content like a well-written blog.
Professional SEO isn’t cheap, because it takes a lot of time and the data crunching tools are spendy- but you can message me if you need some help there. What is Google Search console showing for your position?
A few other things you can do…
I usually setup a Google Business profile, and sometimes LinkedIn and Facebook pages as well for the business, with references back to the website to improve the brand strength.
Google owns the patent for using domain registration length ( years registered, and years remaining in the registration ) as a ranking signal. More established companies will have more history on the domain and a longer commitment to keeping it long-term.
You can’t do anything about the Dec 3 2024 registration date, which is quite new, but you should be able to purchase another 9 years of registration. No guarantees it will create a major boost, but it’s an easy step in the direction of relevance.
I transfered my site a few months ago from GoDaddy to Squarespace, do you think this might be the issue?
What’s crazy is that the homepage doesn’t appear nowhere when typing Glaise Agency—looks like the issue comes from Webflow struggling to communicate well to Google.
Webflow’s doing a great job of hosting your site, and moving your domain to a new registrar is not relevant.
You can see at the link I gave above that Google has indexed everything, and I’m sure you’ve checked your Google Search Console thoroughly for any issues.
Again your site is just not considered relevant by Google. Blog, backlinks, domain registration length, do all the things that are needed to improve your domain ranking and pageranks. You’ve built your site, you’ve indexed it, now your job is to convince Google that it’s valuable enough to rank highly in search results.
Read up on things like the Helpful Content Update an other initiatives that Google Search has launched to improve search results. Google needs to perceive that your content has value to people, or it will stay at the bottom of the list.
You really either need to hire an SEO expert or learn to create this content yourself. Or you can just spend on Google Adwords for faster results. That will get you the visibility you want now while you improve your long-term SEO strategy.
