Internet Marketing While Using RSS (Page 1 of 2)
RSS? Internet marketing? Why and how?
You probably have seen RSS several times in the course of your internet surfing. What is RSS? RSS is a XML file format for syndicating content and news on the web. RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication or Rich Site Summary; syndicating means republishing an article that comes from another source such as a website.
Simply stated, RSS is a means of publicizing updates about any website. It may or may not include a summary and/or photos of the latest posting. Other than content, you can also attach multimedia files, like videos or pictures. Those that do provide summaries (thus Rich Site Summary) allow any user to skim through the article so that they could decide later on if they want to access the website source. The RSS feed usually contains both the title of the actual update as well as the link to the website source.
How exactly does RSS work?
To be able to use RSS, you first have to download software (content management system), so that the XML format can be read. The title, and excerpt of the actual article, and a link to the full article are shown.
For users to access any particular RSS feed, they will need to use a feed reader or an aggregator or a of some type. An aggregator searches for updates on RSS-enabled webpages then displays it. It can either be a standalone application or a web browser type extension, depending on your operating system.

2. Graphics and photos do not appear in all RSS feeds.
3. Some users prefer receiving email updates over an RSS feed.
4. Publishers cannot determine how many users are subscribed to their feed and the frequency of their visits.
5. RSS feeds create higher traffic and demands on the server.
6. The identity of the source website can be confusing.
