A regular Flow of Content is what search engines want and require

The Internet is full of Saturday Morning Bloggers. These bloggers ignore their blogs all week, then they post a few dozen articles in their blog and then spend a few hours adding comments to other blogs. This is a great way to spend a Saturday, but it provides very little SEO marketing benefits. Search engines need a steady flow of comments. Most blogs that appear in a web search have a post that has been published within the last few hours. Dozens of blog search engines operate for the sole purpose of alerting the big five search engines of new content. The posts that you publish on Saturday are already out of the lists by Sunday afternoon. That is why it is important to provide the search engines with fresh content daily.

Thousands of terabytes of information resides on the deep Web, invisible to the masses because it doesn’t lend itself to the crawling and indexing capabilities of the big search engines — pages that are generated dynamically, or unlinked, or behind registration, or scripted, or in some multimedia format. Now, however, one of those dark corners is getting some better illumination.
