Terrible ranking? Anti SEO?

[aj-trusted]

I have created a blog regarding some illegal activity I have encountered by a Solicitor.

However, the blogs ranking is extremely bad. We have a number of websites so I have a reasonable idea on ranking, but no expert knowledge.

How can I tell if this company is doing something to effect the ranking? The blog has been live for about 3 months+ so its not that its waiting to be indexed.

Even when searching for multiple keywords that would be a unique combination for the blog, other much less relevant sites rank far above it.

Am I allowed to post a link to the blog?

Any feedback would be great
