Free RSS hosting service?
-
I have a list of URLs of articles I have written and posted in many different article databases. But many of the URLs are not indexed by Google. How can I get them indexed?
I was thinking of putting them into an RSS feed and then pinging that feed. Good idea or bad?
If a good idea, can anyone recommend a free RSS hosting site? Thanks.

I think people may be misunderstanding your question and thinking you want to make a feed of your content on your own sites. You're wanting to create a feed of content you've written and published on several different article directories / databases so I think Yahoo Pipes will be a good bet: http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/ .
I should mention though that the reason these aren't indexed is probably more to do with the quality of article directories and the content found on them. Google doesn't tend to think very highly of them and I personally wouldn't build links using this type of site these days. Just my two cents.
Good luck!

Hi Mike,
Pinging an RSS feed is definitely a good way to try expanding your index list. Located here is a good starting guide to building and managing your own RSS feed to help increase your online visibility. This will show you how to set automated RSS, how to manage your own feed, and how to register your feed with major search engines. This will help raise the online profile of the URLs indexing the content you have published.

From a company perspective; would you recommend using a service like postloop to acquire additional blog comments through paying users.
I’m always hesitant when it comes to purchasing comments but it seems like a natural approach. Is this something that Google would take notice and/or frown upon? - Anything we should avoid? Any additional information would be helpful. Thank you in advance.

How to best host a blog - standalone or on the site?
HI We are redesiging our site currently - at the moment we have a low key blog on the site which is pretty well hidden (to be changed with redesign) but is hosted as brand.com/blog name. I have been advised it might be a good idea on relaunch to have the blog as a standalone blog linking back to our main site but also having a graphic on the site that promotes the blog. The blog does not currently have the same name as the website so would work as a standalone site but I understand it would not have any seo benefits from the original site. I have seen on previous posts here that the best practise is domain.com/blog but wondered if anyone thought different? Hope someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks, Penny

How to free articles sites work when they offer duplictae articles
Hi, i am trying to work out how these free article sites work. They allow people to put on their articles on their sites but these articles are on loads of different sites which means they are all duplicate content. I am finding it hard how google puts up with this and how the sites still continue to rank high in google when all their site is duplicate content. Can anyone please explain this to me.

Blogs: Hosted vs. Off-Site
What is the latest opinion on whether to have a blog hosting on your primary domain or on an outside domain (either Wordpress or just another URL). In the past we have done the former and it's been a great source of fresh content and organic traffic. Wonder if there is good argument now for not having it on the domain. With this new site we're working on it logistically would be more challenging given their tech resources, plus they already have thousands of pages.
