Search engines like Google read the information in the <meta> tags on a web page to work out what is on the page.
We're going to use the <meta> tag to tell them when a page was last changed, using the name="revised" attribute.

add this <meta> tag between the <head> tags on the page

<html>
 <head>
  <title>My Web Page</title>
  <meta name="revised" content="1/1/13"/>
 </head>

when you save the code and open the page in a browser, you won't see any difference.
But Google and other search engines will be able to see when the page was last changed.
