    Hi all

    I maintain an article directory on most of the topics. Recently i have added a couple of new categories in the directory. 2 weeks later i have created a feed file for them and submitted to some feed aggregator sites.

    Before submiting the feed i was getting ranks for some of my new keywords.
    But after the feed submissions i lost 60-70% of my ranks. For some of the remaining keywords the feed is being ranked.

    What is happening in my case and is there any thing i have done wrong ?

    i havent heard of anyone losing rankings after submitting RSS. Usually the other way around.

    What did you use to build your RSS? does it have auto discovery in it?

    I didn't use any auto discovery. Its a plain & clean RSS.
