Why Every website should have a Feed

Filed Under: Joomla Optimization, Joomla Seo, Search Engines

Looking at Google and Live.com really promoting the use off their Personalized pages makes you think….
And of course the fact that IE7 also has a Feed button on board, means that there is more potential coming from RSS

If every one is creating there personalized pages with content delivered to them, the best way you can stay in touch is by giving them a Feed to put on those pages.

But there is yet another reason to work with Feeds, and that is that they might gain more importance for SEO in the future than You might think, read this post from Arron Wall about Global Links and Subscription data and you will see that it is going to be more important to get readers for your RSS Feeds.

Make sure you have your Feed run via a service like www.feedburner.com to give you visitors an easy choice on there favorite Feed Reader, or even via E-Mail.

Also make sure to have a Full Feed, just to make your visitors aka Feed-Readers happy…

For WordPress, there is a FeedBurner Plugin, for Joomla I suggest your read Overcoming-the-joomla-rss-feed-syndication-problem

So, what are you waiting for, get those Feeds Burning…

    In the lower right-hand corner of my site: http://www.hdrjapan.com/ you will see I have sociofeed installed, but nothing is feeding. Since you have experience with Joomla and feeds, do you know what might be causing this? The creator of sociofeed says that it’s a Joomla problem, can’t seem to nail down an answer. All it is feeding is one frontpage item. :/

    @HDR

    It is indeed a Joomla Problem, the basic RSS Feed of Joomla just uses the Frontpage, nothing more… and it strips all HTML Code so you are left with just text without images.

    Your site just has one item on the frontpage :-)

    But there is hope for you yet.. I wrote an extensief article in Januari this year on http://seo4joomla.wordpress.com/2007/01/20/using-rss-feed-syndication-for-your-joomla-website-promotion/

    I suggest you to read it, and start using the DS Syndicate component from http://www.joomlafun.com/ through Feedburner afcourse!
