Using RSS Feeds to Set Off a Traffic Explosion

RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is the perfect answer to your needs for sharing and distributing content. The way this works is webmasters can share bits of code with one another that give them access to the others forums, newsletters, blogs, information, news, and the like. When this information is shared, it can create a massive increase in traffic. Read the following suggestions regarding RSS feeds and increasing traffic for your web site to decide if this is the right marketing tool for you.

Tip #1 Large Sites with Advertising

For these types of sites, like Forbes, Disney, and the like, RSS feeds do in fact increase traffic. This is really a great way to boost traffic for these types of sites so if you are the webmaster of a similar site then trying RSS feeds as a way to increase traffic is a good idea.

Tip #2 Affiliates and Small Sellers

If you are an individual depending on affiliate programs to generate cash for your web site, or if you sell your own products, then RSS feeds are a great tool to use to generate more income. You can use RSS to provide interesting news links which will keep your pages fresh and attract additional search engine traffic. If you are a small business and need more traffic and visitors, try using RSS feeds to display fresh, on topic news and see if it boosts your targeted traffic.

Tip #3 Evaluate RSS

RSS allows you to publish your content on other people's web sites, so consider creating a feed that contains details about the products you offer and submit it to the major RSS feed directories. Give your feed some time to be picked up by various resources, and you should experience a traffic surge simply by adding RSS to your bag of internet marketing tactics..

RSS feeds set off a traffic explosion for some web sites and for others it simply serves to redirect traffic. In order to make the best decision about RSS feeds you need to have all of the information and test whether or not RSS is working well for your site. Give RSS a try and test it, if for some reason it works against you, simply stop using it. With RSS, don't expect your traffic to quadruple overnight... but you should see results in no time at all!

RSS feeds...Just got better!

We all know that in the world of online internet marketing we need our sites to get good quality targeted traffic on a daily basis. Whether we are just trying to improve our web site traffic just in general or as a specific need to increase our revenue from affiliate programs and adsense the life blood of our business is and always will be quality laser targeted visitors.

So in order to produce high quality web sites we all needed to fill our web site pages with good content rich features and articles, this being a two-fold strategy. Not only do we need high quality content to please our visitors and hopefully get them to return to our sites in the future, good quality content also seduced the major search engines into sending their bot crawlers to our sites on a daily basis and thus ensuring that our web sites were placed and ranked well in their search results. After all, well-ranked web sites in search engine results equals more high quality laser targeted visitors and the cycle continues.

In our quest to fulfil the needs of this web content rss feeds came to the rescue, known by some as Rich Site Summary, rss feeds offer a means of placing a link on your web site from a feature source of interest and this will usually be updated daily by the owner with new features and articles. This was a giant leap forward as far as web content was concerned and enabled many web site owners to produce high quality web sites with fresh daily content of interest to their visitors.

However nothing on the internet stays for long without some improvement and rss is no exception to the rule as web site owners now have the opportunity to offer their visitors and the search engine bot crawlers an even more advanced form of rss feed.

Powerrss now offers feeds that can be randomised, shuffled and archived daily to make web pages even more appealing and yet give each web site owner an individual appearance of what might have been a good but widely used basic rss feed.

So now you can.

Automatically retrieve and displays keyword-rich (relevant) content on your web pages - without you lifting a single finger!

Eliminate the software footprints from your site by randomizing the RSS feeds before displaying them.

In addition, it allows you to automatically perform basic SEO page optimization by highlighting (e.g bold) the keywords, automatically inserts backlinks to your webpages (keyword is used as the anchor text) and the option to turn on the "nofollow" attribute to conserve the page rank.

Use an automated archive system that builds your web site for you - by adding a new (theme-related) page on your site each day - 24x7!

You Are Losing Money If You're Not Using RSS Feeds On Your Website!

(An RSS primer can be found near the bottom of the article)

A commercial web site in 2005 is really costing itself money if it does not utilize the myriad advantages of implementing RSS feeds. RSS provides near real-time delivery of information your web site visitors are interested in, it provides constantly updated content that search engines crave, and it is quite simple to implement.

RSS is a great way to increase relevant content to your web site that your visitors will find quite helpful. For instance, if you have a web site which covers "search engine optimizing", you can search for that term in major news outlets such as Yahoo, then apply that search to an RSS feed which will provide constantly updated keyword-rich news and information to your site! We all know that a site that is updated frequently looks more important to a search engine than one that is static. Most news providers allow you to use RSS feeds from their site for free-And why not, since it gives them more exposure and links. These days blogs are most often associated with RSS.

Because the feeds must be handled on the server-side, a piece of software must be utilized to display the feed that is usually in the form of an ".XML" file on your web page. There are a few out there that handle this task for you quite nicely, I recommend Carp. It's free, it works on PHP servers, and it is easy to setup and use. Once it's installed all you have to do to put it on your page is put the code where you'd like the headlines for that feed to appear. The Carp documentation does a great job detailing the procedure on their web site.

RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is a technology that has seen its popularity skyrocket in recent months that allows news items, forum posts, etc. to be delivered to your desktop using a newsreader called an aggregator. The Firefox browser allows for RSS feeds to be "bookmarked", and that bookmark folder shows the latest feeds from that site. You've probably seen the links to RSS feeds (identified as little rectangles with usually the letters "RSS" or "XML" appearing on them) appearing on more and more web sites, but didn't know what it was all about. You maybe even clicked on one and saw a page of computer "code". The reason it shows the code instead of easy to read information is because most browsers are not aggregators. That link is useless in your browser (aside from the Firefox bookmark technique mentioned previously), but it's pure gold in your aggregator! The aggregator I use is another Mozilla product, Firefox's cousin, the Thunderbird e-mail client that does a nice job as an aggregator. I use it to keep up on the posts of my favorite search engine optimization (SEO) forum at Seochat.com.

In conclusion, RSS is a great new technology that benefits web site visitors as well as webmasters. When visitors are kept happy with more fresh relevant content, and search engines are excited to crawl your site and give it more weight, it results in more sales for you!

How To Get Up-to-Date Weather Info Via RSS Feeds 

If you haven't heard about RSS or Atom feeds don't feel bad. I just started using them about 4 months ago myself. Still, you can take a step right now to take your web surfing to the next level. Perhaps you have heard of Blogs or Weblogs as they are properly called. These gems of the web started out and still continue today as diaries or journals put up on the net by those that just like to write and share their everyday world with the outside. These, still at this time, June, 2005, are still the largest part of blogging on the world wide web. You can find these very easily by going to Google or Yahoo and typing in a subject followed by the word weblog . For example, I just typed in Tornado Blogs into a Google search box and got 150 different blogs about tornadoes. With that kind of exposure you can find blogs on any subject on earth. The great thing about this is that after you decide which blogs are your favorite you can put them in your favorites, bookmarked or otherwise presented on you desktop. The great thing is that many, including myself, have gone to the next level and have turned their blogs into RSS Feeds. A very simple process if you use Blogger.com If RSS is the same as blogs then what's all this weblog stuff? Let me explain, Blogs and RSS feeds are not quite the same. In short, the blogging idea was picked up and many major news sources like Fox and CNN and on and on started putting their own blogs out in the form of newfeeds. Simply RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. And we as end users can gain access to the latest news about anything including weather on our desktops. Yet, doing this is a mystery to so many that I decided to put this report on the web site so that you could gain instant access to newsfeeds and hopefully my own TipsOnTornadoes weblog and RSS feeds. Now, you should understand that newfeeds are similar to HTML and require a special piece of software that allows you to read the feed. The computer language is similar to HTML on a web page but not really the same. To read a feed we need a "reader". There are many "readers" available for free online. The one that I use is Feedreader, available at Feedreader.com. The download is free. It is simple to download and easy to use. It has a great feature that helps me out a great deal. That feature is a little balloon that rises up off your task bar when one of your favorite feeds has just uploaded a new article for you to read. The significance of this will become apparent in a moment. I wrote this article for my subscribers to enjoy my tornado blogs as well as any other content they can subscribe to. Every time I upload a new weblog to my RSS feed you can receive the notice that something new is available. And let me say, I update a great deal with stories from all over the globe which relate to weather. While I would like to think that you would love to see my feeds show up on your desktop every time I upload one, I'm not that naive. The real beauty of this feature, for those interested in weather, occurs when you subscribe to a NOAA feed for your state. You see as the NWS issues alerts for your state the Feedreader window will pop up and you can take a look to see if your exact area is going to be effected by the weather that is maturing. How cool is that? It's like a Weather Alert radio on your computer. These feeds are not exactly easy to find. The NOAA feeds for your state come in this format http://www.nws.noaa.gov/alerts/co.rss where "co" is the state of Colorado or the two-letter postal identifier for your state. So, all you have to do is copy this link into your feedreader and change the co (in this link) to the two-letter identifier for your own state. As you may expect that there are search engines for RSS feeds. They work similar to Yahoo, MSN, Google and others. The trouble is finding them. So here are a few for you to peruse and choose your favorite(s). My favorite is Feedster.com. Chordata.info Syndic8.com Feedsfarm.com Feedster.com Now, that you know what RSS feeds are you may be wondering about these little RSS and Atom tags you see on some web pages. First, let me show you a tag that I am speaking about. While there are subtle differences in the programming of RSS, RSS 2.0 and Atom feeds most readers like Feedreader and Pluck read either format so to you, the viewer, the operation is seamless. However, it should note that RSS 2.0 is written to include enclosures. An enclosure as applied to RSS is the same as an attachment with your email. It simply is something added to the entire file. You may have heard of Podcasts. Podcasts use RSS 2.0 or RSS with enclosures and that is where the audio portion of the feed is kept. The regular part of the RSS is used to present show data like who the artist is and title of the podcast. I only added this here to help you understand what the differences were when you see the various tags. Now, that you have seen these tags let us examine how to use these tags to our benefit. In general, these RSS or Atom tags are encoded with the link to the various links. You will see these on my web sites like TipsOnTornadoes.com or GetYourBizGoing.com However, just clicking on these images or RSS tags as I have been calling them. Nothing happens. A newsfeed doesn't pop up or do you get redirected to some other page. What you have to do is "right click" the tag and save the link You click on "copy link" as shown and then install it in your feedreader. Then after you have internally saved the link or copied the link, you can go to your feedreader so that you can save that newfeed and update it as you prefer. New updates when using feedreader will appear in the bottom right corner by your systray. On the next page I will show you how to enter the feed into your Feedreader . How To Enter the RSS Feed into Feedreader To add the copied link to your Feedreader you open the "File" tab at the top left of the page and choose "Add New Feed". Using your keyboard command of Ctrl + V the link will magically appear in the window. Then you choose the "Next" button and finish the process. It is just that simple and now you have a new feed entered into your Feedreader. You will start getting updates immediately if there are any to be updated to your chosen feed. If you want to check you can just check on the green button with Ying and Yang arrows to update all feeds on your Feedreader. At this point you should be able to procede to the feedreader site of your choice, I recommend Feedreader.com and Pluck.com for the best or most used readers. Once you download your reader you'll be able to enjoy a whole new world of online surfing. Plus, you get alerts that will inform you when your favorite RSS feeds have new content. This is a very sweeeeeet thing. You will wonder, just like the internet, how you did without this for so long. You won't want to do without it after this.

Content Article - Article directories have taken the internet by storm. That is a good thing, as it allows authors to distribute their content and allows publishers to grab content for their web site, but unfortunately, many article directories are offering a huge disservice to authors and publishers due to poorly designed directories.

Blogging Consultant - There are many bloggers who make incomes of several thousand dollars per month from their blogs. These are not casual bloggers who only want to see their words and their name online or who just want to put forth a point-of-view, these are serious bloggers who have made blogging into a full-time (or nearly full-time) job.

Text Content - The foundation of most CMS systems is simple: First one creates a template which will be used to display your pages. In general, one template is all that is needed for an entire site. From there one uses the provided software to add content to the site. This usually means entering the content in some form of dashboard. When completed the data is written into a database.

Content Problem - As a retired Software Engineer(big word for under paid corporation slave). I got tired of setting around to house telling my cat to stop doing the things cats do. I started a side business repairing computers. But I messed the call of coding and creating things... that's what I like best about design be it software or graphics.

Google Sitemap - Google Sitemaps is an easy way for you to improve your exposure in the Google index. It does not mean that to give preferences to these sites, which are submitted. It's a shared crawling system that enables you to communicate directly with Google to keep google informed of all our web pages, and when you make changes to these pages.

Adding Fresh Content - As you start getting more media-savvy, you'll find yourself coming up with more and more information and ideas to help the public. Not all of these ideas will strike the fancy of your media contacts, but don't let them go to waste--become a media person yourself by publishing an e-zine.

Mobile Content Providers - Everyone wants to make money on the web and so as you. This you can make only if you have a web presence and bring customers to your web site and turn leads into sales. Your search engine ranking is the key to the amount of visitors, and the success of your web site, finally.

Finance Content - Feeling a little hot under the collar? Relax. It's not as difficult as it sounds. Anyone can learn to write for crawler search engines. It just takes a little planning, detective work and focus. Ready to begin? Follow the steps below and you'll be writing like a pro in no time.
