This is something i've never heard up until today, but does google penalise a website for having a backdated copright mark on the footer?
I.e. our site has copyright 2001 at the footer and i was led to believe that this will incur a penally for the site.
Thoughts?

I have actually heard this before, the "logic" being that if you have a copyright 2001 for example Google think that your site isn't being updated.
I don't believe this is true though, and haven't seen any evidence of it in my experience.
The easiest thing is just to have copyright 2001 - 2008 for example. I think it looks good to have the original date as it shows you've been established for a long time which inspires confidence.
If your pages are dynamic, you can use the PHP date command for example to print the latest year automatically. I do it on all my sites now, so it automatically updates each year and theres no having to go through all my sites changing it.
I keep my site copyright year updated for appearance though, rather than for Google. I can't see that you would be penalised for it.
Pfftt.... just hang up the next time Kev, I used to get them too at Greenfingers. Cheeky, lying, sods!

A ridiculous assertion. Google look at a lot of time sensitive data, it's true, but your copyright notice is unlikely to be one of them
Yeah I agree..If the SEO company is calling you, you can pretty much guarantee they'll be crap anyway!
Exactly.. good SEO companies dont have time for that sort of thing.
This is one of the worst SEO myths I've ever heard.. I see sites with copyright 1998 and they're ranking #1 !
If this were the case, Microsoft, and their early 90s copyrights would have them ranked pretty low...
