FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is content decay?

Content decay occurs when an older piece of content starts losing traffic because its information is outdated or competitors have published more recent guides.

Why use local HTML scanning for freshness?

Local scanning is 100% private and bypasses CORS issues. It allows us to audit your page without needing server-side access to your URL.

How often should I refresh content?

Audit your top-performing pages every 6-12 months. Any page that has dropped in rankings by more than 3 spots should be a priority for a refresh.

What are the top freshness signals?

Key signals include the publication/updated date, current years in the text, active outbound links, and updated statistics or data points.

How does refreshing improve rankings?

Google's algorithms favor fresh, up-to-date content for many queries. A refresh can trigger a crawl and signal to Google that your page is still authoritative.

Should I change the URL when refreshing?

No! Keep the original URL to maintain its existing backlink authority. Just update the content and the 'Last Updated' date on the page.

What is a 'Stale Link'?

A stale link is a hyperlink that points to a source that is outdated or no longer relevant. Replacing these with current sources builds trust with both users and Google.

Is it better to write a new post or refresh an old one?

Refreshing an old post is often more effective because the page already has historical authority and backlinks. It's much faster than building authority from zero.

How do I find my 'decaying' content?

Check Google Search Console for pages that have seen a steady decline in impressions and clicks over the last 6 months.

Does the local auditor store my HTML?

No. Your source code is processed entirely in your browser. We never see or store the internal structure of your website.

What is the 'Refresh ROI'?

Many creators see a 50-100% jump in traffic after a major content refresh, making it the highest ROI activity in SEO content management.
