Swap “error popup message” for “success”
“error popup message” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “success” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- 3
One page off on “success popup message”
#12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
