Using RSS Feeds for Incoming Links

Getting Search Engine Spiders to your most recent content is always a priority for most webmasters. Sometimes even getting the spiders to update your new content at all can take time when you have a new website. Here’s a tip for newer sites that should get the spiders going crazy & eating your content up.
There are a number of sites that aggregate your RSS feed & turn it into a static HTML page. This means you can submit your feed & the spiders will be able to find & follow those links.
Advantages include:

1. The link has the anchor text of your title
2. You can have upwards of 10 links on some pages
3. Title of the page can be chosen, or can be the title of your blog

Here’s an example of what i’m talking about on Feedburner:

Because I show the 30 most recent posts in my feed I get 30 links back to Earners Blog. I’m pretty sure Feedburner redirects now but the spiders still follow.
Here’s a list of other sites that allow you to use a facility like this:

1. Feedburner
2. Bloglines
3. Squidoo
4. Hubpages
5. Syndic8
6. Feedboy
7. Feedbomb
8. Feedfury
9. Feedcat
10. Rssmad

Most of these services will require a backlink to the page with the RSS feeds so they initally get indexed by Google. Usually I open up a del.icio.us account & import all the RSS feeds then ping them from there. You should notice a nice increase in backlinks & spider activity after using this technique. Enjoy.
