Having the date info is excellent. I hate clicking on a link and than finding the info is so out of date and that can happen with posts that are under one year old depending on the topic.
great even more information on the serps, from the other hand now I wonder that google may devalue forum sig links
Seems like the language doesn't matter for Google, makes me wonder how they "read" the forum then. This calls for an experiment!
That's odd. I just checked again, and the results do not have this info for me. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site:forums.digitalpoint.com&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq= Why???
Apparently not all posts have it yet, but when you scroll down the page a little it shows. It could also be a datacenter related issue, in that case you just have to wait until the changes are globally available.
I did hear some forums owners report decreases in traffic since this Google change about forums. In other side, I think it s very impressive for Google, because now shows more relevant content and my guess is, with this change Google filter better, the duplicate content posted in forums ¿what do you think about this? Best Regards
And all I had to do was scroll down...duh. Thanks for clarifying. I feel like such an idiot...what else is new.
but which kind of forum? I guess not all forum could be like this, 80% I do some search, the results are from DP forum.
they keep experimenting with these kind of stuff, may be they are launching forum search, like they do for images, news, blogs etc.
