Spot the weakest content easily

Keep track of the target pages and metrics

Track your own sets of URLs under selected metrics to align your content with your SEO and marketing goals.

Analyze Your Content in Sets

There’s a variety of ways you can deal with poorly performing content. To ease your routine, the Content Audit tool automatically breaks down your content into sets, based on what can be done to it:
  • Rewrite or removeSpot old articles (published more than 24 months ago) that have been getting few views recently and need to be rewritten or removed.
  • Need to updateIdentify old pages (published more than 24 months ago) that are getting some traffic that you could update to boost their rankings.
  • Quick reviewFind relatively new pages viewed more than 150 times in the last month and think about how you can improve them.
  • Poor contentSpot short articles of less than 200 words that action needs to be taken on.

Such grouping lets you quickly estimate the time and effort needed to perfect each set. Besides that, you can determine the parameters you want your pages grouped by and create custom sets.

Collaborate and Create Tasks

Content Audit lets you stay in control at every point of your content’s lifecycle. You can set tasks to be done to each analyzed page and assign these to your team members.
  • Create detailed task descriptionsAll you need to start working is to add a note or create a task for a piece of content. The current page’s metrics will be saved automatically for further progress tracking.
  • Collaborate and share tasksInvite your team straight to the Content Audit project or send the tasks to your Trello or Google Calendar.
  • Compare content versions and their metricsAfter you initiate a new workflow, all of the pages’ metrics and original content are saved so you can compare and choose the version that performs best.

With these functionalities, you’ll always be aware of the progress of your website’s content updating and optimization, as well as of the impact of the changes on the pages’ performance.
