Here's the SerpBook screenshot as of 12-Aug-2015 to prove the below data (remove spaces) -- http : // snag . gy / 7oojp . jpg
Campaign #1 (as of Jul-12-2015): these kwds were already on page 1 & just need maintenance)
=================================================
Keyword-1 ==> Rank #2 (Search Vol = 3600/mo) ==> 1 DOWN
Keyword-2 ==> Rank #17 (Search Vol = 880/mo) ==> 1 DOWN
Keyword-3 ==> Rank #18 (Search Vol = 720/mo) ==> 5 DOWN
Keyword-4 ==> Rank #24 (Search Vol = 1000/mo) ==> 1 DOWN
Keyword-5 ==> Rank #3 (Search Vol = 390/mo) ==> 4 DOWN
Keyword-6 ==> Rank #5 (Search Vol = 2400/mo) ==> NO CHANGE
Keyword-7 ==> Rank #2 (Search Vol = 880/mo) ==> 2 UP
Keyword-8 ==> Rank #2 (Search Vol = 590/mo) ==> 1 DOWN
Campaign #2 (as of Jul-12-2015):
=================================================
Keyword-1 ==> Rank #126 (Search Vol = 480/mo) ==> 13 DOWN
Keyword-2 ==> Rank #189 (Search Vol = 880/mo) ==> 71 DOWN
Keyword-3 ==> Rank #126 (Search Vol = 2900/mo) ==> 17 DOWN
Keyword-4 ==> Rank #114 (Search Vol = 1600/mo) ==> 12 DOWN
Keyword-5 ==> Rank #105 (Search Vol = 1600/mo) ==> 11 DOWN
Campaign #3 (as of Jul-12-2015):
=================================================
Keyword-1 ==> Rank #None (Search Vol = 1600/mo) ==> NO CHANGE
Keyword-2 ==> Rank #None (Search Vol = 1000/mo) ==> NO CHANGE
Keyword-3 ==> Rank #None (Search Vol = 1000/mo) ==> NO CHANGE
Keyword-4 ==> Rank #None (Search Vol = 2400/mo) ==> NO CHANGE
Keyword-5 ==> Rank #None (Search Vol = 9900/mo) ==> NO CHANGE
Keyword-6 ==> Rank #None (Search Vol = 2900/mo) ==> NO CHANGE
CONCLUSION: In month #1, all pre-ranked keywords DROPPED significantly. In month #2, all pre-ranked keywords are recovering well.
Hopefully, in month #3 (future), these pre-ranked keywords will be overshooting their initial positions. However, the NEW (un-ranked) keywords that were not in top-300, continue to be the same (un-ranked). I will post another update after 1 month.
