Lesson 15 of 2014 minBeginner

Refresh and measurement

Finding decaying pages

Compare clicks over the last 90 days with the same period a year earlier. Steady decline usually means stale content, not an algorithm penalty.

Why this lesson matters

This lesson belongs to Refresh and measurement, the part of Content Strategy & Creation where the goal is: compound what you already published.

Read it once, then do it straight away on a real site inside RankWriter. Nothing here is theory for its own sake — every step produces something you can show a client.

Do it now

  1. 1Open RankWriter with sample data already loaded, so you are not stuck on setup.
  2. 2Draft the page you just planned.
  3. 3Pick your three most-decayed URLs and run the full refresh playbook on one of them.
