A web page’s publishing date is important
Please display the publishing date of your articles or blog posts on the page. It regularly drives me crazy, when there is none.
For some content, it might not be as important, but for a lot of articles it’s very relevant whether they were written one month, one year, or one decade ago.
Ideally, put it right at the top of the post, around its heading (I just updated this very blog and did just that). Then nobody has to scroll through the whole article first to find it.
And please be unambiguous: include year, month and probably the day, too. Definitely don’t skip the year, or at least make it clear, that when there’s no year printed, you mean the current.
The correct HTML element to use is the <time> element.
Thank you!
