All in favor of an "Announcements" category section say MOZ!

So this is just a thought. I am not Rand, therefor I am not the Moz man himself, and therefor I am not telling anybody how to run this website or forum. But, I've been thinking... and usually that a dangerous thing. So many times when I answer a question I end it with:

• "Keep me posted"
• "Keep us updated"
• "Good Luck"

In the same light there have been plenty of times when I have had my questions answered by people like EGOL, RobertFIsher, KeriMorget and they have said that they have wanted me to keep them posted.

Now sure, some of you are sitting there being Melancholy Mozzers thinking that all those wonderful people are just being polite by adding some nice parting words... but what if I they are being Sincere Seoers? What if I WANT to fill them in and don't want to ask a question? What if... THEY REALLY LIKE ME?!?!

I could also send a DM to those 3 people, I mean let's get honest I'm not THAT popular.... but I can dream can't I?

Again, this isn't really an SEO question, more of a thought on where I'm supposed to give updates on my project. In all honesty I do want feedback on what I'm doing, and sometimes I don't even know what questions I'm supposed to ask!

Usually, the best place for an update is within the thread itself. Did you know that we have an "active" tab (which links to http://moz.com/community/q/active ) ? This will sort questions by most recent activity, so even if the question is six months old, if it has a new comment, you'll be able to see that come up on the home page of that tab.

Keeping the question updated within the question is great for people who come to the site a year down the road and wonder what happened in a particular situation, especially if they are not a Pro member and can't add a question to the thread.

Yeah, I did notice that, I wasn't exactly sure as to how it functioned. Thank you for clarifying the timeline too!

As Keri suggests, I think that it would be great to add an update to the original question.

We would like to hear if you tried anything and how it worked.  That type of sharing is a way for everyone to learn - especially if you tried something that we suggested and it didn't work out. 

I am glad that you are interested in doing this.  So many people ask a question, we spend time to reply and they never even return to the post to disagree with us.

I would love it there was a project tracking feature!

Something where I can plug in any changes that were made things like that. Almost like Basecamp + Moz Yet something that I could share with the forum.

I will def keep that in mind and make sure I update my questions!

Don't forget too that most of us who reply to questions also enable the ability to be notified by email anytime another reply is added. So even months later, if you update the question with a new response, most of the original participants will get a heads-up about your addition.
