SO blog editor here (and author of the piece). Sorry for the confusion, we're republishing our top ten posts of the year over the holidays, and I guess y'all picked this one up again.
- OJFord 4y agoSo what does the date mean? Date last marketed? Not a great thing to do IMO... by all means resurface the good stuff to the top of the blog, but why change the date? SEO? I don't think there's a good answer?
- dagenix 4y agoAre you planning on fixing the misleading date?
- dagenix 4y agoI understand if they need to update the date to get it to show up at the top of the blog. But, in that case they can just add a few words to the front of the article saying that they are republishing an item from September.

- ezekg 4y agoSince the date is in the URL, you broke old links, and without a redirect at that. You should look into how you "republish" because it doesn't look like you're doing it ideally. Just some helpful advice. Without a redirect, SEO on the old post will go poof.
