Once you have all the subpages, then....

A question for people who are in such a situation, or are planning to reach such a moment in a while.

As you know, content is the most important thing. In theory, you can publish thousands of pages having a blog, or for example, sports news, descriptions of hundreds/thousands of slots, etc.
In theory, publishing content can be an endless and continuous process. However, there are different niches, one topic to exhaust more easily, another even can never be exhausted.

However, many experienced GPWA users have static pages.
What do you do on your sites, already having a set of pages and not publishing more?

I assume that there is really a lot about work.

-editing hundreds of already existing subpages to keep the content fresh and attractive
- correcting grammar, etc. in already existing pages
- handling social media
- link building
- technical issues, site speed
- security
- UX

Which is basically the same as when we publish new sites, too.

I personally am not affected by the topic, as I still have a lot to write and publish.

How is it with you guys? What do you do? And do you estimate that having a set of pages you have more free time or less? Is handling hundreds of pages improving them as laborious as creating new ones in your case?

I don't think that you need to keep every single page up to date at all times, but there are certain pages that you can iterate almost infinitely.

For example I have some pages that I go over occasionally. Usually, I search similar pages of my competitors (or mby other GEOs) to see what I might be lacking. So far every time I search for a way to improve my content - I always find one. That said, for me it is also a good idea to take some time off a certain topic / page and come back in a while with a fresh view on it.

Personally, I don't usually create content for the sake of creating content (unless paid to do so). All content I create for my websites already targets certain search terms and topics, which I have researched in advance, making sure that there is potential in targeting them.

Link building is also an endless activity. I tend to do it re-actively rather than pro-actively. I find what search terms my pages perform well-ish "naturally" (w/o any artificial link building) - then I double down on those.

One thing that many people do not plan for is navigation structure changes.

If you have a drop down or slide out menu as an example, let's say it comfortably fits links to 30 pages under a given topic or sub topic, what happens when you have 50 pages that would in reality make sense on that slide-out. That section or sub-menu might have 100 in a number of weeks or months.

Be sure to plan for that in advance.

As for having hundreds of pages under a specific topic or idea or section, some topics lend themselves to longer lists of pages and some do not. A review of one of your top performing casinos or bookies would tend to be updated more so then writing new reviews after certain changes or bonus updates or other changes that materially change what was previously written about them.

A specific game or software supplier review would tend to have less changes over the mid term or long term.

We're a little off topic but as for navigation, it's true. I used to get trapped on an old site.
I currently have a vertical menu. I also wondered if it was better to have a drop down or swipe or classic.

I'm surprised that today the vertical menu is so unpopular.

[universal4]

Agreed, often what is needed is a page in the slide out or vertical menu that is somewhat of an additional menu page, or that contains links to many of those pages so the vertical menu length does not grow past the stage of no longer working properly.

For some of those reasons is why the main pages that are fairly static are more logical to update instead of rewriting.

I think updating current pages are less time consuming, provided you have a clear idea of what changes you would like to do to the pages.

But since as you said in the first post,

In theory, publishing content can be an endless and continuous process.

planning that menus structure for future growth is important part of continually adding content.

- I edit the content from time to time to keep it current (at least once a month).
- I look for ways to improve the parts of my websites that are most visited and/or the ones I'm interested in getting the most traffic to. To do this I use the heat maps and the user time on my page.
- I verify that there are no broken links, security issues, or problems with the site speed.
- I improve aesthetic elements.

In summary, I invest time in maintaining my web pages, but I try to do it in activities that have a return on that investment.

I once I have all the pages in English and will not add any more new ones in addition to everything that was already mentioned I will focus on the quality of the translations and possibly the introduction of new languages.

Well I was using slot reviews on static pages, I delted over 2500 leaving just around 1000.. why? because they are low volume search and just lower quality of the site after a while, I do update all my main pages regualrly
