RSS feeds and Content Dublicat

I have a confusion in mind if spider crawls RSS feeds first and then our website content. Then will spider treat website content as duplicate or not ?

 

It shouldn't, but I block the feed in my robots.txt file anyway just to be on the safe side (I consider RSS feeds to be an add-on service to users, not an SEO tactic).

 

It is content syndication, the search engine filter it rather than guessing it duplicate content.

 

Yes this is wise thing to do, but I never use full RSS display. Since the feeds are syndicated to many readers, I prefer to display snippets and user can click on more to comeback to my site.

Initially I was confused when lots of Pro Bloggers were promoting the thoughts of displaying full feeds, but later on I discovered scrappers using the contents to an fairly unrelated site and that gives me links from bad neighborhood.

Your thoughts Dan I am still confused but I am sticking to my principles of displaying the snippets.

 

Snippets in the feeds as well as a copyright statement with a link back to your site.
