REFRESH
CONTENT
Refreshing old articles that
performed well in the past,
should be a part of your
overall SEO strategy. Make
sure you’re aware of what
topics and posts perform the
best for your website.
• Avoid updating the article
date unless you have
actually made changes to
the article
• Refresh your content every
few months or as you start
to see traffic decrease

ADDING
EVERGREEN
OPPORTUNITY
One proven content strategy is to look for
evergreen opportunity from trending
headlines.
Article examples from the following
headlines:
1. Tips for dealing with depression
2. How to help anxiety
3. Celebs who’ve launched beauty lines
4. Dealing with OCD
5. How to help someone dealing with
addiction
6. How to take a selfie
Then link them together for a longer,
more valuable user experience!!

C O N T E N T C L U S T E R S
Usually a mix of text articles,
videos, images, and
inforgraphs, each on the
same topic, but with different
angles.
W H AT I S T H E
B E N E F I T ?
The potential to increase user
engagement: If you can get a
user into the site with the
interest on the cluster topics,
and then interlink these
content pieces together,
there is the opportunity to
increase both pages per
session as well as time on
site.

Google began to surface the
answer box in 2013.
H O W D O W E G E T I N ?
• Content should address the
answer of who, what, where,
when and how & the higher on
the page, the better
• Google extracts answers from
sites ranking on the first page
• The majority of content that
gets used in Google Answer
Box has 1-1,000 words
