I have a question about serp about Korean keywords

mrgam · Monday at 4:19 PM

We built three webs with about 60 black keywords from kd in Korea and worked on them
One was an old web and two were new websites, but a week after working on both new websites, the exposure to pages one to three was a week, and a lot of clicks occurred. However, a week later, one web page is 5 pages, one web page, and the brand name is not available even if you search for it. Is it normal? Did they enter keyword dancing or sandboxes? Backlink work is also in progress. I'm really curious.

Yes, that kind of early ranking → sudden drop can happen, especially with new domains. I wouldn't immediately call it a sandbox Google says rankings are dynamic and can fluctuate as its systems reassess pages and competitors.
For your case, I'd check GSC impressions/positions, indexing status, search intent, content quality, and whether the backlink profile is developing naturally. Give the new sites some time before making major changes; Google notes that ranking changes can take weeks or longer to settlle.

Such movements are possible in the case of new sites, especially during the first few weeks. I would not say it is sandbox or keyword dancing at the moment; I would wait for a few more weeks to change the strategy.

you should give it more time before making any changes because new site need time at the beginning, it can fluctuate heavily so for now focus on quality content for now

Yes, this can be normal for new websites, especially in a highly competitive niche.

Google may initially test pages at higher positions, and then rankings fluctuate while the site settles there might be a Google Dance. If the brand name disappears its an issue.

Check GSC indexing, manual actions, noindex/robots, and canonical issues first. If everything is clean, keep backlink progress more natural and give it a few weeks before making major changes.

How is the old website faring?

The new websites probably encountered the 'freshness window' that many new sites experience. Keep working on building your branding for the two and you should see positive movement.

New sites can bounce around a lot, but the brand name disappearing is a bigger red flag than normal keyword dancing.

I’d check Search Console for indexing, manual actions, and crawl issues before adding more backlinks.

That kind of volatility can happen with new sites, especially after an initial burst of impressions & clicks, I wouldn't assume it's sandbox or penalty immediately, check indexing, technical issues, search intent & backlink quality, then give google more time to reassess the pages
