I Deleted the Content From Two Posts To See if They’d Still Rank. Here’s What Happened

I removed content from two of our pages to try to measure the impact that content has on rankings. You can see the current content for these pages on the blog (top Bing searches, top YouTube searches). If you’ve been reading our blog, you may have seen my first attempt at measuring the impact of content. I deleted the content from these two posts on August 8th and restored it on August 20th:Warning I don’t recommend doing this.
