Things You Can Do with RSS

Things You Can Do with RSS


- Strengthen your watch lists and alerts into a mind-map

For each project, we should create a custom all-in-one splashboard that interprets and strengthens various RSS feed origins (all my "poles" or haunting searches) into a mind map format. Which helps us directly look what I needed to know and to act on following, whether it may be a client review mentioning my customer' brands, or a new story about a topic that I’m exploring, or a book on a website like Amazon or else. Some think that mapping software (Map Maker, ESRI, soft ill, etc….) will mechanically export mind maps to Gantt Chart format for those who are nearly a project-management tended.

- Spread subject flows to make a portal

If you wanted to rapidly build a subject portal, then you could do so by combining the RSS feeds from other sources like many RSS tools. Nevertheless, make sure that you clear all publication rights and brand mark confinements. The best fit would be a way that the site could pay for the content that spreads and still have convinced ROI. Or furnish some other profits for the feed authors, such as dispersion in volume if the portal gets boasts and becomes a desired demonstration for humbler content providers.

Meta Tag Recommendations

Meta tags once held the distinction of being the primary realm of SEO specialists. Today, the use of meta tags, particularly the meta keywords tag, has diminished to an extent that search engines no longer use them in their ranking of pages. However, the Meta description tag can still be of some import, as several search engines use this tag to display the snippet of text below the clickable title link in the results pages.

In the image to the left, an illustration of a Google SERP (Search Engine Results Page) shows the use of the Meta description and title tags. It is on this page that searchers generally make their decision as to which result to click, and thus, while the Meta description tag may have little to no impact on where a page ranks, it can significantly impact the # of visitors the page receives from search engine traffic. Note that Meta tags are NOT always used on the SERPs, but can be seen (at the discretion of the search engine) if the description is accurate, well-written and relevant to the searcher's query.
