Add a date to the content itself if it needs the date for context<\/li>\n<li>avoid adding a date to copyright symbols. Although your <a href=\"http:\/\/wordconstructions.com.au\/blog\/2007\/11\/copyright-or-copywrite\/\" target=\"_blank\">copyright<\/a> applies from when you created the page, a date ages the page and it is easy to miss updating it each January<\/li>\n<li>if you are unsure of when something will happen, be vague rather than specific. So &#8216;new version underway&#8217; or &#8216;give us your details and we&#8217;ll contact you when the new version is available&#8217; are better than &#8216;new version launched 1 July&#8217;<\/li>\n<li>do a search of your site for &#8216;2008&#8217;, &#8216;2007&#8217; and so on then make sure you update as appropriate<\/li>\n<li>be careful of what tense you write in. For example, &#8216;from 1 July we will sell whatsits&#8217; will be dated in August\u00a0whereas &#8216;whatsits\u00a0on sale\u00a0from 1 July&#8217; can be used in June and August. Adding a year to either sentence will date it if you leave the text for more than a few months, of course!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you ever come across a website that is obviously out dated?
