Hi All, I recently discovered RSS feeds in my squidoo lens. I have a blog that I update regularly for one of my niches and recently sent an rss feed to a squidoo lens that is in the same niche. I now have an extra back link and regularly updated content in one shot! I highly recommend it. TSF
The RSS module is a very handy Squidoo feature for exactly the reasons you stated. I endorse the recommendation. Hermas
Rss is a nice feature. I had been curious about it for a while. And it comes up everywhere i went. so i learned about it. Now my blog is submitted to the top rss agregators, im getting traffic, im being spidered, and im getting subcriptions. suhhweeet!
At first it seems RSS is a complicated thing altogether. But ironically, it stands for Really Simple Syndication and that's as accurate as it can be. Nothing like a consistent and handy reminder for new content - a reward for content providers to keep giving away knowledge and tips.
Rss feeds are great for lenses or blogs just remember to submit them to rss directories. Found a new program that does that for you and to 50 social bookmarking sites traffic-bug Jamie
I have no idea where to start or how to implement RSS feeds into my lenses. I know RSS mean "really simple," but I am having so much trouble with it. I can't get it to work in Blogger either. What I am doing wrong???
Hi lauren227nicole! There is a RSS module that you can add to your lens and link it to your blog. Therefore, when you post on your blog, it will feed to your squidoo lens. Just make sure they are on the same topic!! Hope this helps!
Just to clarify - an RSS feed on a Squidoo lens doesn't count as fresh content. I'm not implying that it isn't worth it though. Just think it through carefully before you slap on an RSS module. ~Newbie Shield~
