Want More Traffic? Give Fresh Content, Again

Suzen Pettit, a blogger on Danbury Patch, argues this week in her weekly blog that search engines want fresh content. Provide readers with continually updated content, and search engines will provide more traffic.

Today's blog is, "Blog Traffic Strategy #3: Google LOVES Fresh Content (and Wordpress)." Click here to read her blog.

Pettit argues, "...Google, in an effort to ensure a quality search engine browsing experience for their users, has been slowly at first, more recently much more often, rewarding websites and blogs whose content is continuously updated and changed, and “punishing” those sites whose content has not been altered since the day they launched their websites."

This sounds like sage advice for anyone trying to drive traffic to their site.
