    RSS feeds are real simple syndication can be a positive in alerting those most interested in new posts in blogs as well as any updated content on your primary site to any new posts. RSS has to syndicate something so it makes sense to use this feature in traffic building strategies by syndicating your own unique content.

    hi,
    it's good and it's bad,
    if you post something in RSS so it's good if someone will use it with links to your source,
    but if you use content from other rss provider you might be considered as duplicate content, so be aware.

    Submit your RSS feed to some RSS directories. No such thing as dupicate content for RSS. If that were true, anytime a press release was put out, anyone putting it out would be penalized for duplicate content.

    RSS is good if you can have lots of subscribers. this will help you crawl more and get god traffic.. though it is hard to get RSS subscribers, so it means a little more of work..

    For the blog owner, it can increase traffic back to your website. Primarily it is increasing the repeat traffic to your blog, which is very important traffic. If a reader is willing to come back time and time again to see what interesting new content you have placed, they are valuable dedicated readers.

    RSS is used as a tool by the websites to increase their chances of getting noticed by the people (in simple words more traffic).

    wow, a lot of repeat answers that did even answer his question.. over and over ya'll said the same thing?? lol nice.

    OP, sorry for them, i saw your question and READ it. You asked about SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION.
    Fact is, Rss links are backlinks. Whether they are follow or not, depends. Regardless they have value. So absolutely they help with your optimizing.
    Just like any other backlink it is going to depend on the quality of the site linking back to you. YES, submit to RSS, specially if you have few bl's!
    Hope this actually helps.
