Hi, I heard RSS Feed helps in ranking. No, this is not a ranking factor. I have never heard of or seen any research about this either. Think about all the sites that rank exceptional wall without one. Use it if you seed your content around, but don't think it will do anything for your SEO. -Andy

Hi. I strongly recommend you to DO NOT DO THAT. It's Really difficult to measure the impact of adding a link on every page of a site. (It's also called sitewide). As Matt said, you will get almost nothing of the link juice when adding a multiple page link. I suggest you to take a read of this tutorial from MOZ. LINKBUILDING guide Hope it helps. GR.

Well I'm pretty sure that the difference ain't in Schema.org as the differences there have nothing to do with the crawlability and the newsworthiness of the content. The first things I would focus on are making sure that Google can find new content as fast as possible and that your crawl-rate goes up. That's really important, and if you're convinced that is fixed then focus more attention on the authority part. Both ain't easy to fix, but someday you'll get there!
