Audit the old automation

Use the publisher’s current routes

For a site you control, maintain accurate discovery information and connect new pages through useful navigation. For a third-party article, ask the publisher which supported publishing routes it uses. Keep an internal checklist so the same obsolete recipe is not copied into the next campaign.

Keep paid tests bounded

A service trial can be useful after basic publishing issues are addressed. Set a small budget, preserve the starting state and compare observations over a stated window. Avoid replacing an unsupported ping claim with an unsupported guarantee from another supplier.
