Here are a list of sites that will give you many deep links into your website through the use of RSS Syndication. You will of course need an RSS feed for your website, preferably a dynamic one that updates periodically. I've included some examples, and shown the PageStrength: www.FeedBurner.com (example - PS 4.5/10) Requires Registration. Provides many advance features (e.g. stats, link splicing), and can automatically support any reader. Choose your own keyword rich and SEO friendly URL. www.Squidoo.com (example - PS 4/10) Requires Registration. Is fully customisable, and is not restricted to just RSS feeds. Also provides several earning opportunities (e.g. Amazon, eBay), and referral bonuses. Choose your own keyword rich and SEO friendly URL. www.FeedBomb.com (example - PS 2/10) No registration, just submit your feed details for instant inclusion. URLs are SEO friendly. Once the FeedBomb page is created, it can't be modified, and there's no additional features. www.FeedCat.net (example - PS 2/10) No registration, just submit to Catalog. It is possible to display any RSS feed without submitting it, simply add your own URL to the end of this: http://www.feedcat.net/showrss.php?url= FeedFinder.Pluck.com (example - PS 2.5/10) Submit you feed, or just create a link to "Preview Feed" by adding your own feed URL on the end of: http://feedfinder.pluck.com/PreviewFeed.aspx?uri= Note that the last two sites allow you to create a dynamic webpage that deep links to your site without it actually exisiting on that site. However, for this to work, you have to link to that dynamic page from somewhere in order for the search engine bots to find it. Obviously, this is a little shady, and search engines will eventually figure out a way to detect this. It would be better if your feed is properly submitted and linked to on the site itself, as bots will prefer to find it through internal linking. But it might help get that page indexed sooner, while you are waiting for your submission to be accepted. I'm sure there are some other sites that provide similar services, so if you know of any then please share them... Cheers, Cryo.
Search Engines will eventually index those pages, if they are linked from other pages on the same site. I would, at least temporarily until they get indexed. Cryo.
im confused like with the camera site. you put the rss from the host site on your site for links? or do people put the rss on their sites and it links to you?
I do both - I create the RSS feed on my own site, and then setup pages like FeedBurner or Squidoo that recycle that feed in order to generate lots of backlinks. The feed does not contain the whole articles, so there's no danger of being scraped.
Cryo, for wordpress > options > reading > syndication feeds - you would recommend selecting the option for summary instead of full article?
I try to include one or two links within my site in each of my posts. Is this mainly what you're referring to? Also, I've been trying to get feedburner setup but not sure how to make sure that is the feed being used & not the default feed. Tips?
So just to make sure, this doesnt cause duplicate content penalties? What if my posts are short and it takes the whole post?
Yes, exactly. This serves a couple purposes, the first of which is to only give out a teaser, which forces readers to come to your website to read the full article; important if you monetise it with adverts. Secondly, the summaries mean that you're highly unlikely to get hit by any duplicate content penalties (which answers the question by Crynos). As for FeedBurner, to make sure that everyone's subscribing to that fed and not the original one, you need to modify your auto-discovery tags. Personally I haven't bothered, but that's just me. Cryo.
Does anyone have additional links (besides those above) for RSS submission sites? I think I'd rather submit my RSS than my URL. This sounds like a better solutions to me as it gets the content out there & not just a one-time description.
Cryogenius Thanks for posting this - I couldn't figure something out a few days ago and your post answered my question!
