As SE's love Updates on content

Please, please tell me where you learned this. I am trying to update the Wikipedia article on SEO, and desperately need a reliable source to confirm this widespread assertion, or myth, as the case may be.

Jonathan, it's not proof for or against, but did you read our pinned thread on the topic of frequent spidering?

Amusing thread.

This assertion, "SEs love fresh content" has several facets:

• New sites often jump to the top of the rankings, then disappear.
• Some very old, untouched pages, continue to rank extremely well for highly competitive phrases, even single keywords.
• Changing content can create a moving target problem. If you change content too much or too often, the SE indexing lag time can cause searchers to arrive and not find what's listed.
• Human visitors like up to date content. If the facts have changed, you have to update the web site to maintain value.

I believe that there's no need to make arbitrary, pointless, or trivial changes just to impress the spiders. I don't think that helps rankings. That's the "Fresh Content" myth. The other pieces of the puzzle are valid reasons to freshen content.

I do not think that 'fresh content' is about changing a few words on the start page or any other page. What good does that make Googles customers?

No, if there is any good thing about fresh content it is adding new pages That is what matters. It does for your users.. and if the SEs likes it too, so be it.

When you search in a search engine you get results pointing at pages not whole sites or domains. Forget the start page and add value to your visitors on regular basis. Stop speculating in how to trick GoogleBot.

Search engines like to see new pages and content added to a site but simply not searching for some letters changing all the time with no [url=http://searchengineland.com/070531-115312.php]Real[i][/i] Content[/url] added.
