Articles and RSS?

by justinknightley

Would you recommend submitting article RSS (from article author username) to any RSS directories?

There are plenty of helpful warrior posts about article marketing which suggest bookmarking and backlinking the articles, but none mention RSS feeds.

Does anyone do this?

There are plenty of lists of RSS directories on this forum, but I can't find any results or proof that they work!

Can anyone provide any examples of this working? We all have our IM routines every day, is this part of anyone's routine?

Many thanks in advance.

    Yes, doing these 3 things I have noticed an increased to the rankings, and article views.

    1) Social bookmarking articles with to social bookmarking sites

    2) Submitting the RSS feed to directories

    3) Backlinking to the articles with other linking methods

    I have also tried 'without the RSS submission' and the rankings with them articles arn't as high as with them compared to them with submitting the rss feed.

    As like everything else, it depends on the way the article has been written, whether it is interesting, the keywords used, the competition.

    I dont see it as an extra task that wont bring extra traffic, but as an extra task that will bring more traffic long term..as this will be a long term traffic rise.
    You might not notice an increase in traffic in the first few weeks. Hope that helps.

    Thanks v much for the feedback Matt.

    There are lists and lists of RSS feeds on this forum, how many should I spend my time on per article?

    Does anyone know of any tools that would help? Are there any automatic RSS feed submitters out here anyone could recommend?

      Thanks for your reply Alexa,

      The articles aren't on my site, they are on directories (e.g. EZA) with backlinks to my £££ site. I'm more interested in driving traffic and increasing link juice to the articles (and in turn, to my site )

          Yes of course! But it's a new site & I'm doing some article marketing for it. Just thinking of ways to juice up the backlinks for the articles.

    The only benefit to linking to an article that was submitted to say ezine articles and building back links to it is that sometimes they tend to rank higher, faster in the search engines then your main site. I have been working on article marketing for about a year now and have seen traffic from the article views but haven't seen alot of the back links show up from the resource boxes, does anyone know if the search engines just don't show them does it just take awhile, I also use seo quake which seems fairly accurate.
