Hi Låneoversikten,

Thanks for your questions.

1. Most blogs (including our own and those on WordPress) use tags to show the Published Date and the Modified Date. There are also other hints, like those in the byline or article, schema markup and others. Google will read all of those things to determine the dates.
2. If you just want to tell your readers, then you can just include the edit date in the text of the page. Usually, a line in the post that says “Edit on :” then a description of what was edited is fine.

I find myself constantly having to educate clients on the importance of keeping WordPress sites up to date, more for security reasons than SEO though.

Ideally at least once a week, to keep it fresh and relevant for your audience.

Actually, I found out that writing content with SEO in mind is becoming way better than focusing mostly on backlink building.

Two questions:
1/ How do you tell your readers and Google when the article was posted? (FYI: I see you have added a red posted by box at the end of the article, is that all?)
2/ If article updated, how do you tell your readers and Google about the date of update?

Agree 100% – pumping out irrelevant blog posts for ‘all’ sites is a waste of time :-)
