RSS Feeds

[KS__]

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.

Hello,

RSS is good for at least two reasons:

1. Your clients/users are constantly exposed to your products/news.
2. Give you links

This How-To is the one I use to explain to my interns! Good luck!

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?

You can use RSS for two things:

1. Send it to your customers/readers, so they can read yours news, and then maybe they will use your content in their social media.
2. Submit your RSS feeds to a RSS Directory, that they save your feed and put a link for you

Got it? =]

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 need to enter in each of the links listed, and submit your post/rss there!

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?

Exactly! You could make some automatization on that, but that's other subject!

hehehe

Please teach me the 'automatization' thing too. I'll be obliged :))

[seomasterbrasil]

Oh, that's very specific topic, for IT people!

I don't know that either!

Does using a service like linklicious.me help? Is it recommended?
