Google Fresh Update
-
Here's a question, if you put the date in your url (often a wordpress format) would that be seen by Google now as 'fresh' content? - part of their new update.

I agree with Alan here.
Paul, we use Joomla! CMS at our agency and we use a simple plugin (RSSeo) that automatically updates and is in XML format. Just like Alan's site shows the importance and frequency adjustments, I'm quite sure you can find a WP plugin...or you can write it all manually (just be ready for a few hours if you've got a large site)!
Hope this helps!

have a look at this site map, see the lasmod date
http://perthseocompany.com.au/sitemap.xmlyou need to adjust this when you update a page

What do you mean by last mod?
I just have a site map i submitted to webmaster tools, should i be doing more?
Would this only really apply to blog sites?
-
It may do, but the best idea is you update your sitemap lastmod date.
but you must update your page if you do not reflect the truth in your site map SE's will lose trust in it and start to ignore it
