RSS Feeds
-
It is highly preached that RSS is a great way to get backlinks.
Can somebody explain me how go to about RSS, or direct me to a good source on Internet where I can learn all about RSS feeds and how to implement them? I know there are many reasonable RSS feeds services available out there, but I don't want to go for them. If at all I'd like to first learn myself and then decide on what to do.
Please help.
-
Does using a service like linklicious.me help? Is it recommended?
-
Oh, that's very specific topic, for IT people!
I don't know that either!
-
Please teach me the 'automatization' thing too. I'll be obliged :))
-
Exactly! You could make some automatization on that, but that's other subject!
hehehe
-
Ok So what I do is... whenever I create a backlink, I should submit the URL to a RSS website like http://www.5z5.com/Suggest-A-Feed/ . Yeah?
-
You need to enter in each of the links listed, and submit your post/rss there!
-
Thanks
I want to understand 'in detail' how (2) is done. i.e. Submit your RSS feeds to a RSS Directory, that they save your feed and put a link for you
Can you please help me learn the technique?
-
You can use RSS for two things:
- Send it to your customers/readers, so they can read yours news, and then maybe they will use your content in their social media.
- Submit your RSS feeds to a RSS Directory, that they save your feed and put a link for you
Got it? =]

Thanks. The article was indeed very helpful and easy to understand.
However, now that I understand what RSS is, I want to know how can I utilize it to for backlinking and spread my articles around? I've heard terms like "submitting to RSS Feeds" in SEO. Can you help me understand that please?
-
Hello,
RSS is good for at least two reasons:
- Your clients/users are constantly exposed to your products/news.
- Give you links
This How-To is the one I use to explain to my interns! Good luck!

Multi-domain content and meta data feed
Hi, I am working with a client whose web developer has offered to build a CMS that auto-feeds meta-data and product descriptions (on-page content) to two different websites which have two completely different URL's (primary domain names) associated with them. Please see screenshots attached for examples. The entire reason this has been offered is to avoid duplicate content issues. The client has two E-Commerce websites but only one content management system that can update both simultaneously. The work-around shown in the screenshots is the developers attempt at ensuring that both sites have unique meta data and on-page content associated with each product. Can anyone advise whether they foresee that this may cause any issues from an SEO perspective. Thanks in advance wM3ngsj.png KtBun98.png

XML Feed
If a site has an xml feed being used by 100 companies to create the content on their site. Will those 100 sites receive any link juice? Is there any way content may be classed as duplicate across these sites? And should the page on the site where the xml feed is coming from have the page indexed first?

RSS Hacking Issue
Hi Checked our original rss feed - added it to Google reader and all the links go to the correct pages, but I have also set up the RSS feed in Feedburner. However, when I click on the links in Feedburner (which should go to my own website's pages) , they are all going to spam sites, even though the title of the link and excerpt are correct. This isn't a Wordpress blog rss feed either, and we are on a very secure server. Any ideas whatsoever? There is no info online anywhere and our developers haven't seen this before. Thanks

Updating rss feed times without changing content
my question is like the title reads If I have an rss feed in an xml file and from time to time I update the pubdate and time. Will this have a positive effect on my website in terms of the rss aggregators coming to my site thinking that it was recently updated and creating links to these pages or will they be able to determine that there is nothing new by comparing it to the old page that they may have stored. thus doing nothing or maybe even hurting the website.

Are RSS Feeds deemed duplicate content?
If a website content management system includes built-in feeds of different categories that the client can choose from, does that endanger them of having duplicate content if their categories are the same as another client's feed? These feeds appear on templated home page designs by default. Just trying to figure out how big of an issue these feeds are in terms of duplicate content across clients' sites. Should I be concerned? Obviously, there's other content on the home page besides the feed and have not really seen negative effects, but could it be impacting results?
