RefreshRank – Content Decay Detection & AI Refresh
·
Find the posts losing search traffic with your Search Console data, then refresh them with AI - you review every change as a diff first.
Most blogs lose traffic the same way: not from a penalty, but from slow decay. Posts that ranked well in their first year drift down as competitors publish fresher content. RefreshRank finds those posts before the traffic is gone and helps you bring them back.
How it works
- Click « Start free » – no signup form, no email required.
- Connect Google Search Console (one click, standard Google consent screen).
- RefreshRank analyzes 16 months of your search data and ranks every post by decay: how much traffic it is losing, and how much it could win back.
- (Paid plans) Click Rewrite on a decaying post. The AI proposes a refreshed title, meta description, answer-first intro, an FAQ section, and date updates. You see every change side by side – current vs proposed – and nothing touches your post until you approve it.
- Approved changes are applied as a normal WordPress revision, so you can always roll back.
Free plan
- Decay detection for one site
- Full ranked decay queue with scores, trends, and suggested actions
- Daily automatic sync with Search Console
Paid plans
- AI rewrites (titles, metas, intros, FAQs, date updates) with human approval on every change
- Monthly rewrite quotas by tier
- Multiple sites on one license
- White-label reports (top tier)
What makes it different
- You approve everything. RefreshRank never auto-publishes. Every AI proposal is a diff you accept or reject, and accepted changes are saved as revisions.
- Self-hosted AI, flat pricing. Rewrites run on RefreshRank’s own inference servers – no per-token API bills, no OpenAI key to bring.
- Built on your real data. Decay scores come from your own Search Console clicks, impressions, and positions – not third-party estimates.
External services
This plugin talks to the RefreshRank API (https://api.refreshrank.com), operated by the plugin author. It is required for the plugin to function – the decay analysis and AI rewriting happen there, not on your server.
What is sent, and when:
- Account signup / license activation: your site URL, when you click « Start free » or activate a license key.
- Search Console connection: handled entirely between Google and the RefreshRank server via OAuth. Google tokens are stored on the RefreshRank server and never on your WordPress site.
- Decay queue: your license key, when the plugin fetches your ranked queue.
- AI rewrite requests (paid plans): the title, meta description, and post content (up to 30KB) of the specific post you ask to rewrite, plus its top search queries. Content is processed on RefreshRank’s own AI servers and is not shared with third-party AI providers.
