How much does fresh content matter in SEO?

Read a short story from Darren about How much does fresh content matter in SEO… reminded me of a domain which I have just renewed 2 days ago.

The domain is used for a soccer blog which went hiatus for more than half a year. Funny thing is despite not being updated all this while… the visits keep rising and the only source of traffic is from various search engines. So I guess frequent update doesn’t matter too much in SEO.

The worth thinking part for me is what to do with that website as it is showing more and more potential to be a decent money earner. I don’t really have the time to maintain another blog at the moment… perhaps I should sell it to some interesting party instead.
