How frequently do you add content?

    I am trying to get some understanding how much of an advantage in the serps Google gives to sites that update content frequently. Have any of you had first hand experience at increasing the frequency at which you add content and seen a jump in serps? Is there for instance a large advantage for adding content daily over weekly?

    On one of my new site I add twice a week & it's fine. On a big older site I add everyday. It's depends on Google crawl rate on your site.

    A blog that attracts a lot of repeat visotrs will need frequent updating. Th emore you update the better because you habve more content for search engines to add to their indexing. Do make sure its good content though.

    Well, for blogs, I would say updated once per week is way too low. I update almost once a day or when busy, once in two days.

    There is no need to add regular updating of content. U just need quality content so that u get better ranking.

    The site averages 5000 per day

    Better if you post unique article everyday using your targeted keywords.

    The more frequent you update your content the more visits you will get from the bots ;) On places like forums (DP) for example the bots practically live here because the content is always updating. :D

    My site has thousands of pages and I am usually updating/improving some part of the site on a daily basis. I'm getting crawled daily by Google, but because of the number of pages I have they might not hit the page I updated for a few days. The home page is rarely updated. Should I be focusing on adding new content there and on the top level pages?

    I would do both, dont forget to update your homepage, after all its the first page your visitors see.
