# RefreshRadar

> Know exactly which pages to update next. RefreshRadar connects to Google Search Console (read-only) and delivers a weekly, prioritized list of the pages losing organic traffic — each with the reason in plain English, the query losing ground, a recommended fix, and the estimated clicks per month at stake. After you update a page, it measures whether the traffic came back.

## What it is
- Category: content refresh intelligence / content decay monitoring. Not an SEO suite, dashboard, or content generator.
- Who it's for: founders, solo operators, and content marketers running an established content site (roughly 50+ indexed pages with organic traffic, some of it a year or more old).
- Access required: read-only Google Search Console. It never posts, changes, or publishes anything.
- How decay is detected: a page's clicks over the last 4 weeks are compared against its baseline, the 8 weeks before that. A page is flagged when clicks are at least 20% below baseline, with a floor of 10 clicks per week so ordinary noise isn't reported as decline. No AI or black-box scoring — the method is statistical and every recommendation shows its numbers.
- Recovery tracking: after a page is marked as updated, the 28 days after are compared against the 28 days before.

## Pricing
- Starter: $29/month ($15/month for the early cohort, locked for life). 1 site connected to Search Console. Up to 250 pages monitored. Weekly priority digest by email. Decay detection + traffic-at-stake ranking. Recovery impact tracking after each update.
- No free trial. Connect Search Console free to see your three worst-decaying pages, then pay to unlock the full list and the weekly digest.
