I read many webpages. They said that I could use javascript:alert(document.lastModified); to find the last update of a site. I test at least 10 websites. Only the website that I made gives me the right information. All the others show the current time. E.g. "http://automationgt.com/".

    Web sites generated dynamically may lie about the lastModified date. You cannot trust it to give you useful information. I doubt there is any way to reliable do this. – Zoredache Sep 18 '13 at 23:55

I do a site search in Google (e.g. site:pcornet.org ) and then find the page(s) I am looking for using keywords with the site search (e.g. site:pcornet.org intitle:"patient council"). The result will have a date next to it. I figure this is the date that Google reads that it was modified. It's better than having no date at all.

    Google doesn't always show these dates. It only shows them if the actual page content also shows a date, such as in news articles etc. – Cas Sep 09 '16 at 07:10
