the problem
Most WordPress posts are written once and forgotten. The piece that drove traffic eighteen months ago still points readers at a 2023 statistic, a deprecated screenshot, and a stale year in the title. Nothing tells you. Search rankings drop quietly. Visitors bounce.
the approach
ContentWatch watches every published post against a review interval you set, then pings you when something needs attention. One weekly email lists what’s stale. Open the dashboard to see traffic data per post (Search Console + GA4), get an AI-generated rewrite suggestion, and ship the update — or kill the page.
Key capabilities:
- Configurable intervals — Daily through 5 Years; one rule per post type
- Multi-channel notifications — Email digest, Telegram, Slack; extensible via filter
- AI analyze — OpenAI-powered freshness scoring, suggestions, and rewrites per post; encrypted keys, configurable per-post-type guidance
- Analytics-driven decisions — GSC impressions/clicks/CTR/position + GA4 engagement/bounce in a sidebar metabox; “Analyze with metrics” feeds data into the AI prompt
- On-page SEO checks — title length, meta description (Yoast / Rank Math / AIOSEO), outdated-year detection in titles and slugs
- Bulk actions + CSV export — bulk AI review via Action Scheduler queue, download results, bulk Watch/Ignore
- Watch & Ignore lists — curate exact posts; watched always evaluated, ignored always skipped
- REST API + webhooks —
/wp-json/cw/v1/stats, per-rule and global webhooks, HMAC-friendly
No subscription, no SaaS account, all data stays on the site.
