          What sort of value does an RSS feed provide for a website?

          If you use an RSS feed on your website, what do you use to keep it updated?

          Can you recycle mention of content / pages in the feed over time?

          Any good links on this subject?

            Thanks. That was helpful.

            So I can use Google's Feedburner and that's sufficient to get maximum exposure? Or do I also have to use others like Bloglines?

            As previously mentioned, I was using "RSS Builder" some time back. Any recommendations for managing the actual feed given it's being used for a website?

            Can I start a new feed based on the newer pages added over the last so many months?

              The main benefit of RSS feeds is to keep users updated with your latest content should they not access your site directly.

              From an SEO point, if you have activated the "pingback" feature, this will ensure that every site update will be notified to search engines & browser bots and specific blog/content submission sites. RSS feeds also provides additional internal links to a page hence providing more link juice and page authority. Make sure you don't have too many internal links on a page.

              It is therefore important to be smart about RSS feed placement and making it compatible to access and read fpr all types of sites mentioned above.

              This is why you'll notice people using Google's Feedburner, whereby you can  have more control optimising the meta data per RSS feedback and automatically connecting social media accounts i.e. twitter or digg for automating content promotion.

              Hope this helps,

              Vahe

                What is the SEO / Google value, if any, to providing an RSS feed to a website that's more static than not? Low value, high value?

                If you use an RSS feed on your website, is there any sort of automated program  to keep it updated? (I used to "RSS Builder" a few years ago but fell out of the habit of keeping it updated because I didn't think I was getting any benefit from the feed since pages are more static than not / not enough freshness.)

                Can you / do you / should you recycle mention of content / pages in the feed over time?

                  The value of the RSS feed provide a way for your viewers and website to get the information you post without going to your site - it keep your name in front of your subscriber viewer to your content. RSS feeds instantly notified your subscribers. Keep them inform, Establish credibility and bring traffic

                  Here is feed burner to explain: https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=feedburner&continue=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedburner.google.com%2Ffb%2Fa%2Fmyfeeds&gsessionid=EXRSKues33gYaweyfc_8Lw

                    Why Google Search Console Data is different from Moz Data for my website

                    Hi All I am running a website, I have been using Moz since Feb 2021. Kindly go through these pics My question is why Moz is showing 2K plus backlinks while Google search console is showing just 1253 backlinks. Why fewer links in the google search console is less? How can I increase Google search console backlinks? Also, Moz is showing 90+ DA backlinks but those websites are not showing by the Google search console. What should I do to let google consider them? m0JGjBQ.jpg Cmp8ei3.png

                    What are the SEO implications of high quality backlinks from US-based websites to UK-based websites?

                    Hi everyone, quick question I hope someone could help me with: We're representing a client based in the UK. As part of their overall strategy we've been linkbuilding. At the moment, about 80/90% of the links we've gained come from UK-based sites, with 10/20% coming from US-based websites. The US based websites are very good (think New York Times and genuine, relevant blogs with good readerships). An external search analyst/consultant has contacted the client to say that the US links will be harming the site, because the links are from websites in the US and not the UK. We believe that if 80/90% of the links were from the US this could indeed cause harm as it could indicate to search engines that our client is in the US when it's not (which might compromise their chance of ranking in .co.uk versions of search engines) however because it's only 10/20%, and because the linking sites are very good, we believe that they will getting all of the benefits of the positive metrics without any meaningful negatives. We just wanted to get a few opinions on this to see if people think that we're mistaken, and would be glad to hear any opinions contrary to our own.

                    Do links to my website improve all pages?

                    I'm currently building links to my home page (through directories) and blog pages. However, none of these pages are actually targeted pages for main keywords. In SEO, do links to any webpage of a site contribute to the improved rank of other pages?

                    Do backlinks which contain parameters pass value

                    For some of our partners, we use our own tracking string in the url i.e. www.mysite.com/landingpage.html?partner=123456 . This has caused backlinks to be created to our site containing the partner string. I was wondering if these links would pass value to www.mysite.com/landingpage.html and the tracking parameters would be ignored or would Google treat www.mysite.com/landingpage.html?partner=123456 as its own page. If it did treat it as a seperate page, could you reclaim some of it using the canoncial tag?
