Focus on user engagement metrics like visits, bounce rates, time-on-page, and click-through rates to spot underperforming content. Once identified, improve these pages by adding depth, originality, and unique insights that directly address user intent. If certain content offers little value and cannot be improved, consider removing or noindexing it.
