RSS feeds are simply an electronic data feed of digital content on the Web. You can view your favorite blogs, news and more streamed right into your reader. Most web browsers are now equipped with a feed reader, and if you have an older machine, simply installing Google Reader will take care of this.
So what uses can you make of this for your marketing?
Many!
First and foremost, getting your feeds listed in the various RSS feed directories will result in a number of good inbound links to your site.
These sites can also deliver up a fair amount of traffic on their own, as they are searched on and also indexed in the search engines. This can help your page rank higher and get more traffic.
There are several other benefits to making use of RSS. Here’s just a few:
Follow your favorite bloggers. Collecting your favorite feeds into your feed reader makes it very convenient to stay up to date on the people you are following.
Publish your company’s feeds on your website so people can easily find and subscribe to your content.
Add a widget that pulls in feeds from specific topics to display on your blog or website.
Track specific Google searches. A great tool for searching for new blog articles and news is Google itself! Google has ‘Google News’ and ‘Google
Blogs’ search functions, which are both great tools for collecting and searching for articles that are important to your business.
These are but a few ways to generate links, traffic and buzz. There are many more. Don’t ignore the possibilities!
