    Hello, people!

    I saw around that a blog can take some backlinks using only submissions of RSS Feeds in some sites.

    Do you have some of these to quote?

    Thanks for the help! :D

    I have not heard any thing related to links and feeds. While I know rss feeds submission can help to get crawled easily, I have never heard this. Waiting for fellow members to discuss this.

    It's something like RSS Feeds Directories...

    Well, I think I found one: www.freefeedsdirectory.com. They are sites like these: that brings follow links to us. But I need to explain this one a little bit more.

    The thing about RSS is that it is a hypertext language that describes a file normally not detectable by search engines such as an audio file or video file. Spiders know that it is an .mp3 or .flv, etc., they just don't know what it says. That is one use for the xml markup (RSS Feed).

    The other is subscription or "syndication" (hence the name Real Simple Syndication - RSS) Whereby one can get a continuous update of your blog, Ezine or podcast, etc.

    There is semi-automated submitter software and thousands of directories to submit an RSS feed to. First you have to create one. Normally, if you did it by hand it is a pain in the ... But thankfully most CMS (Content Management Systems) like Wordpress, Joomla, Mambo, etc., make them for you. There is also FeedforAll which does it on any webpage.

    If you have a feed and you submit it to a directory, or someone subscribes, it is equivalent to a backlink to your site. How it scores with Google I have no idea, they may give it some credit. Probably not as much as a pure text link, but that is just a guess on my part.

    To me, the significance of the RSS feed is the descriptive value it has for data not normally read by search spiders as I described earlier. Getting a lot of subscribers would be the key to high value of the feed itself. You can chart that with Feedburner and other such sites.

    I use a feed to post on Twitter. I have a plugin that takes every new blog post and makes a Tweet out of it. I know a lot of people do this, but not with their own blog. They often use Google Reader or other feeds of that nature. What I have found is that I get anywhere between 1 and up to 58 hits per post and I post often. I also Tweet without links and reTweet, etc. It works better than I first thought it would.

    RSS feeds are finally catching on as a way to get subscribers. It has been around for many years, but most people never really understood the true value.

    Hope that helps.
