Why is RSS feed so Important

4 replies
An RSS Feed will allow your visitors to get automatic updates every time you update your blog or podcast. And it allows you to get links immediately pointing to new blog posts.

Take your RSS feeds and submit them everywhere, you only do it once because it will always be there and update right away.

Most bookmarking accounts have RSS Feeds. :p

Any other suggestions out there?

    I submit my RSS feed to Ping.fm, a syndication tool that submits to 20+ social networks. Set it up once, you're done. It will continue to update. Also, I submit my RSS feed to yahoo pipes. It ranks well and there's a bigger chance of ranking since Yahoo has authority.

    You can also submit your rss feed to tribepro. A service where you share content and it gets thousands of shares for you.

      Benefit of RSS Feed

      * Get notified of new content without having to check all the sites yourself.
      * Read or scan a larger amount of information in a shorter period of time.
      * Subscribe anonymously to a feed, eliminating the need to provide your email address.
      * Stop receiving the feed by simply deleting it from your reader.
      * Subscribe to newsletters through RSS, getting them out of your inbox. No need to check your junk mail folders for newsletters that inadvertently get trapped.
      * RSS allows webmasters to provide fresh and relevant content on their websites and thus increases the visits of search engine spiders.

    ping.fm sounds interesting. I think it's very cool to have all your content automatically syndicated to your twitter and facebook account automagically
