      Hello,
      i have a little question, it seems most of my posts which are 3 years old or even more, all have almost same type of 2-3 lines of text at post starting and then images roundups etc. 
      which recently stopped getting any traffic from google. Probably becuase of lack in text etc. 
      So if i now edit those old pages, will they be reindexed in google with this new content/data? 
      thanks in advance.
      cheers

        Instead of changing the text, I will recommend removing the whole content, edit it all and then post it again .

            Yes Ayaz, you have to edit out the content and Title ( include targeted keywords ). Don't change the URL as it might have some incoming links.
