I have a quick question to
ask you... "Are you sick and tired of hearing
about RSS(Real Simple Syndication) and how it can
take your online business to New levels with VERY
little effort on your part?"
If you answered 'YES' to the question above
then stop reading this article Right Now!
If you answered 'NO' then your going to love
what I'm about to reveal to you about RSS and WHY
its being consider the newest player in the VIRAL
marketing game.
But before I do I think its important you
understand the mechanics of each(RSS and VIRAL
marketing) and what there role is so there's no
confusion.
RSS by definition -- RSS stands for 'Real
Simple syndication or Rich Site Summary' and is
used to syndicate news or information and is
usually associated with Blogs because blogs use an
RSS feed to distribute their content.
Next...
VIRAL Marketing by definition -- is any form of
advertising and/or marketing techniques that
"spread" like a virus without you having to do
anything.
Now that you have an idea what the two mean and
the roles they each play it's now time to tie it
all together.
I have another quick question...(As you can see
I like to ask questions.) "What do all website
owners and portal sites need on a 24/7 basis to
keep their visitors/readers coming back day after
day?
If you answered 'Content' then give yourself a
pat on the back because your absolutely Right!
And what do RSS feeds contain that update on a
24/7 basis?
CONTENT! Whether its News related or Articles.
And where do website owners and portal
webmasters go to find these much needed RSS feeds?
You guessed it... 'RSS Directories' where
hopefully You submitted your RSS feed(s) to.
The great thing about 'RSS Directories' is they
are all categorized making it easy for whomever is
looking.
And if your RSS feed catches their eye, guess
what? They'll add your feed to there website where
You'll gain all that FREE exposure at their
expense.
Now, just imagine if 100 or 1000 website owners
picked up your RSS feed.
Your traffic to your website would start to
Explode effortlessly without you lifting a finger.
And the cool thing is all you had to do was set
it up once.
The more 'Quality' RSS feeds you have out there
the more opportunities you have of getting picked
up by webmasters.
Do you see Now how RSS is being considered
VIRAL? And this all happens while your sleeping.
It gets better So hold on.
Do you publish your own Content/Articles?
If you do you are also in for a real treat
because guess what other directories are starting
to incorporate RSS into their directories?
That's right, 'Article Directories'.
By submitting your articles to the TOP 'Article
Directories' the same effect will happen as I
outlined with 'RSS Directories'.
Remember this, people come online primarily for
Information that will help solve a particular
problem they are dealing with.
Websites contain 'Information'.
Website owners need Fresh 'Information' on a
24/7 basis to feed their readers needs.
RSS feeds deliver content, whether its News
related or Articles, on a 24/7 basis or whatever
frequency the website owner chooses.
How can you take advantage of this Right Now if
you haven't already?
Simply set up a Blog at
Blogger.com --
http://www.blogger.com -- and start posting to
it on a Daily basis with your Articles, Product
Reviews or News related postings related to your
target audience.
Then go submit your Blogs RSS feed to all the
top 'RSS Directories'.
