What is Evergreen Content

Evergreen content is content that stays relevant over time, continually attracting traffic without becoming dated. It covers timeless topics that maintain consistent search interest, unlike news or trend-based content.

Example

'How to tie a tie' (evergreen) vs 'Best phones of 2023' (not evergreen). The first will be relevant for decades; the second is already outdated.

How to apply it

Target timeless topics, avoid date-specific references unless necessary, write comprehensively, plan regular updates, focus on fundamental concepts and how-to guides.

Tip:Even evergreen content needs occasional updates. Check annually to ensure examples, links, and best practices are current.
