Do you have a website with hundreds of pages many of which do not get viewed very often? Does it bother you to keep creating content for your website only to find it disappear in the search engines? One thing you can do is recycle your content.

Having many articles myself, which are important to mankind, but are completely stagnant now after a year or so on our websites I was bothered, in fact I have taken the titles and searched them in Google. Exact titles and they are nowhere to be found, well at least on the first 7 pages. This is why no one ever comes to those pages anymore. It is therefore time for me to recycle some of these pages.

One way to do this is to re-submit them with only a little modification perhaps a paragraph or so and definitely a complete title modification and a set of key words too. I realize this maybe against your personal policy, as it smacks of “gaming” the search engines, but it does not have to be. You can add pages quickly this way and provide important information to your website viewers.

On our websites we will have to do this as many of these articles are very important to mankind, but are not getting any traffic at all. Things such as helium electric cars, robotic mars vehicles, flexible concrete, cancer articles. Absolutely no play what so ever; it is as if these articles were de-listed? They are still in the search engines, but completely buried you see. If you will figure with small modifications and better key wording everyone can win, as the viewer gets new information, you get better search engine placement and more traffic. This way you will have more information given, more sales and more hits too.

If you leave the old and put in a new one, then it is a new article too, meaning a bump traffic and the old one will remain, but the new one may have a new paragraph opener and some added in key words and better titling. What I am telling you is there is a right way and a responsible way to do this without “gaming” the search engine. Be responsible about how you do this and you will be rewarded with new customers and viewers to your website without complaints and accusations of “gaming” the search engines, like so many websites with quite worthless content cluttering up cyber space. Think on this.
