Hello,
We apologize for the issue you are facing with the Rank Math score dropping dramatically. This can happen due to various reasons, especially when using page builders or if there are changes in the content or settings that affect the SEO score.
Here are a few things you can check to help prevent this from happening:
-
Content Rendering: If you are using a page builder, the way content is rendered can affect the SEO score. Always refer to the score displayed inside the page builder to ensure your page/post is fully optimized.
-
Focus Keywords: Make sure you are consistently using the same focus keywords and that they are present in key areas such as the title, headings, and throughout the content.
-
Keyword Density: Ensure that your keyword density is within the recommended range of 1% to 1.5%. A very low or very high keyword density can negatively impact your score.
-
URL Structure: Check if your primary focus keyword is included in the URL. This is an important ranking signal for search engines.
-
Refresh and Save: After making changes, always save your post and refresh the page to see if the score stabilizes.
If you continue to experience issues, we recommend replying to this ticket, and a human agent from the Rank Math Support team will assist you further.
Thank you for raising this concern!
