Odd one - dropping positions but traffic improving
-
Seem to have a bit of an odd one. For the last few months been running a backlink campaign for a 2/3 year old site, got good positions for some keywords/pages but seems to have plateaued the last 60 days or so with some keywords dropping in position.
The odd thing is traffic seems to be still improving (according to GA and GSC).I am wondering if -
- have hit a niche ceiling
or - rankbrain type thing i.e. google trying to work out what the site should be ranking for and messing with positions.
or - because it is just a newish site.
Any ideas?
- have hit a niche ceiling

Regarding the project los 10 mejores casinos online during the time you worked on it, the success of the project likely depended on various factors, including the quality of the resource, the relevance of the content, the user experience, and possibly the competition in the online casino industry. While traffic is important for visibility and potentially higher rankings, it's not the sole determinant.

Sounds like it has to do with the website being new..

How To Encourage Google To Discover Links?
I got a valuable backlink from a high authority website (MSN), but the link is placed in the middle of a slideshow with 20 pictures, and the only way to reach it is by clicking through the slideshow. After 6 months, this link still hasn't been noticed by Moz or Semrush, and I assume Google hasn't seen it either, because it's in the middle of a slideshow. Is there any way to encourage Google to find this link? Or am I all out of luck?

SEO question about lots of outbound links
I'm considering adding a directory page to one of my websites that lists local groups from all around the world. I haven't kept up with SEO in a long time, but I recall (many) years ago that having a lot of outgoing links and very few (if any) inbound connections was a terrible thing. Is this still the case, or have search engine algorithms figured out that this can be beneficial to site visitors? What effect will adding a page like this have on my SEO?

Around 10% of our backlink profile is made up of branded links from one Japanese site, do we disavow?
We have recently changed domain names and all the links are going to the old domain. We are wondering whether we should disavow them all as they are the majority of our backlink profile at the moment.
