How to Give an Old Post New Energy

7 ways to update an old post with some new energy:

  1. Revamp the title.

  2. Give it a fresh introduction.

  3. Use a call to action. Give people a purpose and a motive.

  4. Add depth with illustrations, maybe a video (I’m not a fan of them myself), format points as a list, etc.

  5. Quality control. Proofread for typos and check your links for linkrot.

  6. Add more information, update the information you’ve already got.

  7. Leave a fresh comment on the post, even if it means the first comment is your own.
