Description
Keeping your trending and seasonal recipes up to date on your homepage and sidebar is key to optimizing the performance of your posts and site as a whole.
This is important to get right because:
- you can push high performing pages up a few positions
- this earns you higher revenue
- showing more relevant recipes to readers increases the pages per session and time on site
Get this wrong, and your readers miss out on important seasonal recipes, your competitors outrank you, and you earn less income.
