Hello Laura, thanks a lot for this. I will definitely follow this path. One quick question, though, when you delete the original post, would you 301 redirect it to the new one? or you just 410 delete it? thanks a lot :)

@MikeandLauraTravel 26 дней назад

@@Solonomadjourneys it totally depends if you have backlinks, any Pinterest pins, etc! If so, I would create a redirect 👌🏼

Thank you, great tips, I will definitely be digging through old content. I do have a question about deleting the old, original post. Wouldn't it be OK to turn the old post more into the round-up, almost pillar-type post, which then would link to the new posts. For example, where you previously had an H2 (or H3) for Short Hikes, now you throw in a few new sentences and then, "Want to read more about just the short hikes? Visit my very detailed post: "Short Hikes". The reason I am asking, is because I actually split a well-ranking post (position 1-3 for the keyword), which contained a section I took out and converted into a brand new post (which is now in #3 for the keyword). I don't want this to come and bite me, but the two keywords show different results in Google, which helps me feel safe. It can take a while for Google to catch up to my helpful intention, but the two posts are definitely not duplicate content. Just like your post of all Oregon hikes will not be a duplicate for just the short hikes. Hope that makes sense 🙂 I appreciate your work into updating the information, thank you.

Yes, you could do this, but I also don't want to repeat myself and write too much more content. The goal would be to recycle what you already created :)

What about longevity? Does that not matter any more?

@MikeandLauraTravel 6 месяцев назад

In my opinion, no. Your website age can help, but your blog post's age doesn't seem to matter anymore. It's the reason people are mad about Reddit and Quora results in the top 10 because they are from 2012.
