Hi
My homepage URL appears as https://emdigitalmarketing.ie. The keywords in the slug were SEO and website design packages, but I changed it to a digital marketing agency in early February. Since I changed it, my homepage ranking has dropped from 50 to 70 position.
I am thinking of setting a redirect from the old URL to the new digital marketing URL; this might help with the ranking a bit.
Can you please help me find the old URL?
