RSS Feeds
-
It is highly preached that RSS is a great way to get backlinks.
Can somebody explain me how go to about RSS, or direct me to a good source on Internet where I can learn all about RSS feeds and how to implement them? I know there are many reasonable RSS feeds services available out there, but I don't want to go for them. If at all I'd like to first learn myself and then decide on what to do.
Please help.
-
Does using a service like linklicious.me help? Is it recommended?
-
Oh, that's very specific topic, for IT people!
I don't know that either!
-
Please teach me the 'automatization' thing too. I'll be obliged :))
-
Exactly! You could make some automatization on that, but that's other subject!
hehehe
-
Ok So what I do is... whenever I create a backlink, I should submit the URL to a RSS website like http://www.5z5.com/Suggest-A-Feed/ . Yeah?
-
You need to enter in each of the links listed, and submit your post/rss there!
-
Thanks
I want to understand 'in detail' how (2) is done. i.e. Submit your RSS feeds to a RSS Directory, that they save your feed and put a link for you
Can you please help me learn the technique?
-
You can use RSS for two things:
- Send it to your customers/readers, so they can read yours news, and then maybe they will use your content in their social media.
- Submit your RSS feeds to a RSS Directory, that they save your feed and put a link for you
Got it? =]

Thanks. The article was indeed very helpful and easy to understand.
However, now that I understand what RSS is, I want to know how can I utilize it to for backlinking and spread my articles around? I've heard terms like "submitting to RSS Feeds" in SEO. Can you help me understand that please?
-
Hello,
RSS is good for at least two reasons:
- Your clients/users are constantly exposed to your products/news.
- Give you links
This How-To is the one I use to explain to my interns! Good luck!

Duplicate content issue with ?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=
Hello,
Technical SEO | | Dinsh007
Recently, I was checking how my site content is getting indexed in Google and from today I noticed 2 links indexed on google for the same article: This is the proper link - https://techplusgame.com/hideo-kojima-not-interested-in-new-silent-hills-revival-insider-claims/ But why this URL was indexed, I don't know - https://techplusgame.com/hideo-kojima-not-interested-in-new-silent-hills-revival-insider-claims/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=hideo-kojima-not-interested-in-new-silent-hills-revival-insider-claims Could you please tell me how to solve this issue?

RSS Feed and WebTraffic
I am a weebly user and have a site (crmi-online.com) which has an RSS Feed of my current blog entries on my home page. I am struggling with the following issues... Duplicate Content - Moz shows duplicate content for my blog articles. Which are also housed here (http://www.crmi-online.com/news-and-press-releases). Could having the feed on my site be causing this issue? Traffic- My Weebly stats show that the RSS Feed is my 2nd highest ranking page at 713 views per this month. However when I compare it to the data in Moz my news feeds or the actual blog page are not one of my top ranking pages. Can someone help to explain the difference? Also, it appears that my site gets a lot of spam traffic and I wonder if removing the feed would help and give more accurate numbers. Is it necessary? - Is it necessary to have both the feed and the blog page? I want to move to one of the new weebly responsive themes after having trouble with a current custom/non-supported template. If I do that the feed will have to go since it jumbles the content in mobile view. I am not sure of the need except for the aesthetics on the home page since I dont see any correlation to traffic to the actual article/blog itself. Thanks in advance for your help!

Problem with Wordpress RSS feed and Feedburner
Just discovered a problem with my company site's RSS feed. I'm a bit embarrassed to ask, but I thought someone in the community might have encountered this -- and I cannot figure it out for the life of me! We had redirected our Wordpress feed to Feedburner. We publish at least once per week, but no posts after March 18 are in the feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheClineGroup The standard (Wordpress) RSS feed page does not load: http://theclinegroup.com/feed/ Of course, I deactivated all plug-ins to see if one of them was the issue, but the problem(s) still existed. Thanks so much for any assistance!

Are RSS Feeds deemed duplicate content?
If a website content management system includes built-in feeds of different categories that the client can choose from, does that endanger them of having duplicate content if their categories are the same as another client's feed? These feeds appear on templated home page designs by default. Just trying to figure out how big of an issue these feeds are in terms of duplicate content across clients' sites. Should I be concerned? Obviously, there's other content on the home page besides the feed and have not really seen negative effects, but could it be impacting results?

A question about RSS feeds and nofollow's
With the nofollow tag used very widely on the internet these days I was just wondering about how an RSS feed might help me find a way around it. Basically my question is this : I post a comment on a blog, it's approved and my comment together with my link(nofollow tag applied) is there. Now when the blogs RSS feed updates, does this nofollow tag get applied to the feed? As far as I can tell it does not - but I'm not too clue'd up on how the feed is generated. Anyone want to help me understand how it works and if what I'm suggesting would be 'a way around the nofollow tag' ? Thanks 🙂
