Can I make an old blog post pop up in google by applying better SEO tactics?

[Tim Webster]

I find that google looooves up-to-date content. I update my post about once or twice a month just to keep things rolling.

If youre rankings are down, just do a little optimization. Research your rankings for that post, ei. what keywords are people using to come to that page/post. Make your adjustments. However youll not want to over-optimize, google has recenly done an algo change targeting heavy SEO.

And as always, link-building. Look for high quality PR Do-Follow pages. And leave a relavent comment to the article. Dont make it "Spammy", leave comments that are of value.

Hope this helps!
