This week, we’re sharing key insights to help you do both, including tips for refreshing content to boost rankings and drive more traffic. What’s new Beware of podcast booking scam targeting creators We want to make you aware of a scam targeting creators. Scammers are posing as podcast bookers, offering interview opportunities on podcasts. They ask to schedule a Zoom call to discuss logistics for a Facebook Live interview. During the call, they instruct creators to change their Facebook settings to grant access to the event link—giving the scammers control of the account. Stay cautious and always verify opportunities directly with official sources before making any account changes. Top resource The ultimate guide to refreshing content to boost rankings and drive traffic Updating existing content is one of the most effective ways to drive traffic to your site. By optimizing underperforming posts and keeping top-performing content relevant, you can improve rankings, re-engage your audience, and maximize the value of your content library. But not all content needs a refresh—some should stay as-is, while others might be better off removed. This new Resource Center guide walks you through how to identify high-potential content to refresh, when to leave content alone, and the best practices for updating posts to get the biggest return on your efforts.
