Ranking drop from 4.5 to 40+ after title change?
- SEO |
I've been focused on one specific keyword which is the name of a competitors site. I thought to myself it might be a good idea to update the title (hadn't been updated in over 6 months) to gain a higher CTR. It did just that. CTR went from .25% to .50% virtually overnight which was a huge impact, then dropped off after 3 days for that specific keyword.
Now here is the strange part, the keyword in question is a 3 word phrase, and I was ranking around 4.5 for both wordwordword and word word word versions of the phrase. I changed the title to closely match the "word word word" version of the keyword, however, I only dropped rankings for the "wordwordword" version of the keyword. The downside is the version without spaces has 4x the volume as the spaced phrase.
I reverted the title 2 days ago to the original, but I'm guessing all hope is lost.
Hoping some experts can weigh in here. I spent an enormous amount of time and money ranking for that keyword, and now I feel as all is lost
