I'd be curious too if anyone's had luck from this. I've always wondered what happens to search results if a post gets republished with minor versus major changes to it. I don't sticky posts very often though or have many I can think of that I'd want to add on to every so often.

Might be worth a try one year to see how it goes. I know I tried something like this with my most 'commented on' post for my first year of blogging, and the republishing generated exactly zero comments. So, my effort was a flop but that doesn't mean yours won't be.

Memorial Day (as I would expect is the case for most holidays) is probably going to be a lighter traffic day anyways, so you might have be going uphill on a few different fronts.

Today, I have up the requisite Memorial Day themed post, on frugal ways to celebrate the day of remembrance which has turned into a day of picnics. Moving forward, I don't want to have to reinvent the wheel every year, so I was thinking about republishing it every Memorial Day in the future. But instead of serving up stale content, I was thinking of expanding it a little bit each year. This year I have three tips. Next year I would add one to make it four (probably should have named the post slug better, oops). The year after, add a 5th. Maybe go a little faster and add 2-3 each year instead of just one. The idea would be to gradually expand my 750 word post into an epic whale post.

Has anybody ever tried anything like this? Has it worked for you or been a flop?
