You may have heard of RSS, but you may not have known what it was or how to use it. You will now learn how to use this technology to keep your websites "fresh."
RSS means "Really Simple Syndication" or "Rich Site Summary."
Summary. Some people have also called it a "pull" technology instead of a "push" technology. In fact, this is what makes RSS so popular among people who use the Internet today.
Spam is probably something that most people who use the Internet today have heard of. If they have an email address, it's likely full.
For those who don't know, spam is when you get emails from people you didn't ask to get information from. Spam is the technology of "push." That is, people "push" their email messages into your inbox, whether you asked for them or not.
And this part of "push" technology is what has led many people to think that email is dead. There's a chance that email will still be around for a long time, even though people still send spam, which is against the law. In fact, companies make millions of dollars just by selling solutions that claim to stop spam to both regular people and big businesses.
On the other hand, RSS is the exact opposite of the "push" technology used in email. You can't send your message to subscribers by "pushing" it. In fact, people can only sign up for an RSS feed if they do so on their own. At the same time, they can unsubscribe at any time.
So, this kind of technology is called a "pull" technology. Because subscribers "pull" information into their readers, and if it's not what they expected, they can unsubscribe at any time. So, unlike the "push" technology used by email, no one who uses RSS has an inbox full of spam. All they have to do is click "unsubscribe," and they won't get any more messages from the person who gave them the feed.
RSS has also become a common way for people to make money online. And part of that is because of how popular the RSS "pull" technology is. Here's one way that RSS feeds can help a website make money.
Imagine setting up a minisite, which is a simple website with just one page. Now, add either Google Adsense code or the new Yahoo version of ads that look like Google Adsense and pay you money when a visitor clicks on them.
This gives you a good place to start, and if you optimize your website correctly, you have a good chance of getting a high search engine ranking. And the more people who visit your page, the more likely it is that they will click on one of your links, which will make you money.
But RSS offers an even bigger chance. Because when you add an RSS feed to that same web page, you turn it from a static page with only the information you put on it into a dynamic page that is always changing and that people will probably read more than once.
After all, a one-page website doesn't give anyone a reason to come back after they've read it. If you put RSS feeds on your website, a lot. You can add 5, 10, or 15 feeds to a page that was once static, turning it into a page that automatically updates itself and gives people something they'll want to read again and again.
Using free RSS creator software, it is easy to turn any web page into a dynamic web page. Carp is one of the most popular free versions,
Once you've put this program on your website and added the right code, you'll need to find RSS feeds that are related to what your website is about.
Now, once you've uploaded your website, it will automatically get new information about flower gardens from Google and Topix. Just follow this example for any page you want to make money from, and your search engine ranking and your bank account will go through the roof.
