Freshness
After nearly 10 years of work,
Google universally addressed
content freshness in 2010-11.
Caffeine provided the infrastructure,
Freshness was the algorithm
update, and schema.org defined
dates in web page data.

Freshness http://moz.com/blog/google-fresh-factor
All other factors being equal,
fresh content degrades over
time and is less successful
for certain queries.

Freshness http://moz.com/blog/google-fresh-factor
The percentage of content
within a page that remains
fresh will affect the page’s
overall freshness score.

16. Measuring BV SEO
Linear Methodology
Compare 2 months before and after
the integration, allowing for a 1
month gap to account for the
adjustment period while search
engines are adapting to the change.
Measure traffic from natural search
and referring keywords. Adjust for
seasonality as needed.
Concurrent Methodology
Split the product catalog into two
comparable groups – a control and
a test group. Tag the products in
each group in your analytics
system, and deploy BV SEO for
products in the test group.
Correlate these groups with traffic
from natural search and referring
keywords.
Note: this must occur server-side.
