Shoutout to the guy on YouTube who said to kill my old blog posts, he was right
Back in January I had 84 old posts dragging my site down and a random commenter said to just delete the dead ones instead of updating them. Did it, and my organic traffic is up 40 percent since March, so now I want to know what else I'm sleeping on.
84 posts is a lot to just sit there rotting, so yeah, that commenter did you a solid. I did the same thing last year and it felt wrong hitting delete at first, but dead posts just sit there confusing Google. 40 percent is no joke either, that's a real jump.
