By default, WordPress has a built in RSS feed, which people can subscribe to if they want to see new posts from you automatically.
On the internet, there are a number of sites that list feeds from all over, which people can search on to find content. These sites are called feed aggregator sites. By submitting your feed to them, your posts will be found by people searching those sites for information and products.
The Benefits of Submitting Your Store Traffic Site
By taking the time to submit your store traffic site to feed readers, you do the following:
- Get automatic backlinks to your new articles and product showcases
- Let people who prefer feed aggregators to search engines find you site, products, and services
When you start article marketing, this will help to more quickly get people viewing your articles.
Getting your sites feed URL
To submit your RSS feed to aggregator sites, you will first need to get the URL to your rss feed.
- Getting Your RSS Feed URL
- By default, your feed should be found at /feed on your site.
- e.g. http://www.privateerwebsolutions.com/feed for this site
- If you cannot find your feed URL:
- Locate the RSS logo on your site (most themes have one)
- This is normally an orange image with a radio like graphic
- Select the RSS logo
- This will take you to the RSS URL and display your feed
- Copy the URL from your browser
