I used to rank my brand as number one ranking for many years. Two years ago, I closed Google Business Profile for a year, reopened the profile, and verified it. I no longer rank number one with my brand and have no manual penalties.
My domain is the exact keyword match, and I used it for over eight years, but I got beaten by the other domain whose page and domain authority are higher than mine. We are not in the same industry and share only the first word in the domain. In addition, their home page contains little text.
Do you have any suggestions for me to make a comeback, SEO Experts?
