Using my users RSSs?

    I serve a few thousand RSS everyday for my users, (you can have RSS turned on for each weblogs in http://www.journalhome.com/).

    I don’t want to abuse my users RSS but I am also thinking that maybe I could add a link back to my site.

    Is there an RSS tag to show what my site is?
    Can I use RSS to my benefit or should I rather stay away from my users RSS and hope that their visitors will come to my homepage?

    Any suggestions?

    Don't you have a link back to the homepage on their individual blogs already? I probably wouldn't put a link to the homepage in the RSS, since it's part of their URL and on their page already.

    Just my 2 cents. :)

    There is not always a link back, on their blogs almost everything is optional.
    For example, the toolbar, (that has a link back), can be removed.

    And they don't really have to have a link back to the homepage.

    Maybe I should force them to.

    I'd probably go that route. Maybe a sidebar link they can't remove?
