      Posting new PDF.  Is there anything beyond maintaining the PDF metadata, filename and URL I need to do to keep its current top ten search ranking on Google for a specific generic noun which it currently ranks for? Many thanks ahead of time for your help.

        What is the PDF about?  Just need to drive traffic to the PDF via social media, link building, basic on page seo.

          The PDF explains the economy.  Whilst I am not trying to actively drive traffic to the document at the same time I do want to actively prevent the document from losing its ranking.  Thank you
