The other day, while blog hopping, I read from a blog that was supposed to teach us how to be a more successful blogger, that we should update our old blog posts with newer, more relevant information.

Well, with a few thousand blog posts published, I do not see how it would be possible for someone like me to take the time to update our posts. I would only do it for a couple of really hot posts that people look at as “authority” posts or one which has an evergreen topic that people would continue to search for.

But to do it for every post, or even the majority of the posts, nah, I don’t think so! However, I believe that blog readers should be savvier in looking at the date that the posts are published, so that they would be able to gauge how relevant the issue is at that point in time.

What about you? Would you want to spare some time going through your old blog posts and updating them with more up-to-date information?
