How long does a news article stay on Google's 'News' section on the SERP?
-
Our site is recognised as a news source for our niche - was just wondering if anyone had any idea how long the news story stays on the front page of the SERP once Google picks it up?
-
Depends how competitive, but around 3 days if you're lucky and the search matches
Usually I only see our stories in there for 1 or 2 days tops, but then again smaller and smaller sites run with the story and our results get replaced with the same story but more recent updates.
If you become the authority on that story (ie, lots of links and references) I would imagine you could stay in there for longer, but alas, never seen it.
