Short answer for : treat each keyword/page as its own asset and build a steady mix of signals for each. If a page already ranks and has real editorial links, good on-page relevance, and user engagement, it usually does not fall off the first page the moment you stop active outreach. If the ranking relied on temporary or paid links that disappear, drops can happen quickly. This echoes ’s point about organic link growth and ’s warning about readability over stuffing.

Practical checklist you can apply now:

  • map each keyword to one canonical subpage (avoid cannibalization);
  • make titles, H1, meta and content match user intent and cover related/semantic terms;
  • create a lightweight pillar or index page that links contextually to each subpage using varied, natural anchor text (see ’s relevance point and ’s long-tail idea);
  • diversify external links (different domains, contextual placements) and never rely solely on paid/link-scheme sources.

Maintenance and transition strategy:

  • shift outreach gradually rather than abruptly. Keep a low level of ongoing promotion (social posts, occasional outreach, resource updates) while building the next page.
  • refresh content periodically and add supporting long-tail pages to capture related queries without cannibalizing the core page.
  • monitor via Google Search Console (Performance + Links) and an SEO tool for lost backlinks and ranking trends. There is no fixed “how long” — persistence depends on link quality, competition, and on-site signals.

Cautions: avoid exact-match anchor overuse, do not buy links without proper disclosure, and consolidate thin/duplicate pages. For fundamentals and internal-link best practices, see Google’s SEO starter guide (Google's SEO Starter Guide) and Moz’s internal linking overview (Moz: Internal linking).

The idea is that your content should be good enough that you will constantly grow links naturally. A link building campaign is a good start to grow traffic to a page, but the content should be good enough that once the page has a decent amount of traffic, people will start to link to it all on their own. You can then move your link building efforts to a different page while the first one continues to get new links organically.

If the only links you get are those that are from paid link building efforts, then as soon as you stop paying, nearly all the traffic will dwindle rather quickly.

Most people forget that SEO is an ongoing process until your site is well established or placed well enough that it will maintain itself. I think that once you are confident that your main page is well established with the main keyword you start working on optimizing the rest of the keyords. However, do not overdo it. It is imperative that your site content reads naturally to a human brain. And that it does not appear as being stuffed with keywords to a search engine bot.

Always remember that Quality supersedes quantity. And when it comes to SEO, it is NOT the exception.

Relevant content + Backlinks for each subpage.

In my own experiences, using relative keywords or long tail keywords relative to your already ranked keywords in building new backlinks would be a nice idea for this purpose. You would rank your new keywords while keeping your old ones.

Have a nice day,

Those keywords and their respective Keywords with their Back links for each sub page.
