First, update old content so your new audience members can enjoy some of your most valuable material
- Create new chapters, sub-sections or images
- Update them with newer, more relevant stats
- Add stylistic edits to match your current website
- Get rid of dead links and add more relevant ones
- Optimize the article for a different keyword
Once updated, note that it is essential to keep the same URL, if not the page will lose all its links and have to build its SEO positioning from nothing. Also, avoid updating too frequently, no more than once every 12 months.
Next, conduct a Search Engine Performance Audit to find pages with the highest negative click scores. This step-by-step guide will show you how to do this and bring organic traffic to existing articles. The goal is to find content that is already optimized for searching but has dropped in the results pages. These can be updated, optimized further for search, brought to the top of your content feed, and redistributed on your social channels.
Don’t waste your previous efforts and great content, breathe new life into your older content and attract more visitors to your site with an easy refresh.
