Page Timestamp VS random content.

What Google thinks about it?

Hallo, I have read in previous potst that Freshbot asks web server the "last-modfied" http header.

I have one question:

In a page i can put this:



select case $var
case 1
content = "1"
case 2
content = "2"
end select

Imagine that "1" or "2" may be very long content and they can vary lots of information on my site, do you think that google believes that its content is fresh?

Or he always asks for "last-modified" timestamp?

Also for dynamic pages that have a recordset of informations randomly sorted...they provide always new content, don't they?

what u think about?

As per this thread
Are you using If Modified Since? [webmasterworld.com]

Dynamic content won't change the if modified since date and if that is an important criteria then it may be a primary draw back of dynamic content where scripts/pages are seldom updated and db driven.
