A page rescan is a re-evaluation of a previously audited page.
The purpose of a page rescan is to understand how changes to a specific page affect interpretation, answerability, and content understanding over time.
While a page audit evaluates the current state of a page, a page rescan evaluates how that page has changed relative to a previous evaluation.
Questions A Page Rescan Can Help Answer
A page rescan may help answer:
- Did answerability improve?
- Did important ideas become clearer?
- Were new key points introduced?
- Did interpretation change?
- Did structured data alignment change?
Example
A team updates a service page to clarify:
- What the service does
- Who it is for
- How it works
A page rescan helps determine how those changes affected interpretation.
What A Page Rescan Does Not Do
A page rescan does not evaluate:
- Other pages
- Site-level consistency
- Broader website changes
The focus remains on the selected page.
Common Misconceptions
A page rescan evaluates one page only.
A page rescan is not a site-level activity.
