My page ranking dropped after I made it responsive

[ThinkWebUK]

Recently, I made one of my site page responsive. It was ranking on 13th Position and after I made the page responsive, it dropped to 24 desktop and 35 on mobile rankings.

I ran mobile friendly test and it said "awesome, your page is mobile friendly". Not sure, what went wrong here.

Page in question is: https://www.itcontractorsuk.com/

Can someone please advice?

Please Note: My site is partially responsive.

Hi there.

My thought is that it was just a coincidence. Usually, responsiveness doesn't affect rankings that dramatically, especially on desktop devices. There are many-many far more important ranking signals than being mobile-friendly.

Make sure that your website is properly optimized, you got good backlink profile etc. Also I suggest to look at your competitors. If they have improved, or there were new companies, which are better optimized than yours, and, at the same time your website is underoptimized - your rankings will go down.

Hope this helps.
