FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How often should I refresh content?

We recommend auditing your top-performing 'evergreen' posts every 6-12 months to maintain their rankings.

What does the audit include?

It checks for outdated statistics, broken-sounding hooks, and emerging keywords you should be targeting now.

Is it free?

Yes, the Content Refresher is 100% free for individual post audits.

Why is content refreshing better than writing new posts?

Refreshing a post that already has some authority and backlinks is significantly faster and more predictable than trying to rank a brand-new URL from zero.

How do I identify which posts need refreshing?

Look for pages that have seen a gradual decline in traffic or rankings over the last 3-6 months. These are your prime targets for a refresh.

What are 'Evergreen' assets?

Evergreen content is information that remains relevant and valuable to readers over a long period, rather than being tied to a specific news event or temporary trend.

Does updating the publish date help SEO?

Only if you have made significant changes to the content. Google values freshness, but 'fake' date updates without content improvements can be seen as a negative signal.

Should I change the URL when refreshing?

No! Changing the URL will lose all existing backlink authority and social signals. Always keep the same URL and use a 301 redirect only if absolutely necessary.

What is 'Link Rot'?

It is when outbound links in your old posts point to pages that no longer exist. Fixing these during a refresh improves your site's user experience and crawlability.

Can I use AI to refresh my posts?

Yes, our AI can help you rewrite introductions, update data points, and identify new semantic keywords to include in your updated version.

How long does a refresh take?

A strategic refresh usually takes 30-60 minutes, compared to the 4-8 hours needed to research and write a full new article.

Does Bolta track my rankings?
