Feedburner links and SEO value question

    Hi There,

    My Wordpress blogs use the Feedburner plugin in for RSS feeds. This all seemed fine until I recently set up Squidoo pages and used the RSS capabilities to display the latest posts from my blog. But the links display as feedurner links, not the url of the actual posts. This does not seem like the best thing for getting backlinks? And with the Feedburner plugin active I cannot find away to override how the links display. Any thoughts?

    Sure I understand I can deactivate the plugin, but I am trying to validate whether I am taking an SEO hit leaving it on in this situation, and if there is another way besides turning if off.

    Hmmmm this is a situation

    I am also using the plugin my links also go to feedburner pages :(

    Okay after some thought I have one idea. We can still put normal feeds out into some other file and just update the path in squidoo to that new file.

    It really doesn't matter. The RSS Module is Javascript, and so isn't visible to search engines and they won't see the links anyway. The RSS Module is only useful for traffic, not backlinks.
