Problem With Business Not Showing With GMB & Organic

Hi all

(This is a different website to the other post ive made)

I've got a website, been live since April. No link building has been done, no content has been added post launch.

The brand name for the business and website is also a term used in what appears to be the medical sector/science/research sector (this business does not operate in those sectors)

Brand name search, home page is showing 11th. I have set up a GMB page, and the knowledge panel does not show.

When i search brand name + town, the knowledge panel shows, but the "press" page url ranks number 1, not the homepage.

When i search brand name + area (the county where the town is located - this is in the UK) we do not appear in organic, or in the knowledge panel. However the companies linkedin profile appears.

The project hasn't allowed for any marketing to be done post the website going live.

Client has now asked me about the above.

The poor ranking I believe is due to their business name (which is the domain name) being a term used in another market, and as the website has had 0 link building, thats why.

The GMB, I don't know why the press page would be appearing, and I dont know why the knowledge panel is only showing up for one of the terms i search. I think its because of low authority, again due to know link building, and local citation building.

Any further input on the reasoning for this would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance all.
