Why ‘RSS Submission’ is So Important

- by 2,390

RSS Submission

Over the years, RSS has been widely used to run auto blogs, read blogs, get updates and much more. Many web developers out there still don’t submit their RSS feeds to popular submission websites.

RSS feeds contain all your blogs posts and links to each of them. Submitting them to a website that lists the feeds on its pages will rapidly increase your ranking in search engines and improve how fast your sites pages are picked up by the search engines robots.

Why does it make me more visible to robots ?

Robots basically scan a website for all its pages and content, and then it moves onto scanning all the websites linked to the website already being scanned. High PR web pages get visited on a more regular basis, thus meaning your site and all its pages would also be indexed on a more regular basis.

After developing a blog or building a website or splash page, I always look at ways to showcase every single page to the big bad search engines – I’ve found that the easiest way is to submit RSS feeds.

    gr8 list..... needs a lot of hardwork to create such a useful list.... Is it worth submitting all my post to all the rss directories or are there any softwares or websites that will automatically submit my links to all rss directories mentioned above
  2. Dneprolab says:
    Added few RSS agregators to my list. While searching you can find much more RSS submission websites.
  3. Don Chen says:
    Well this explains a lot why my boss wants to submit to RSS sites. LOL! Thank you for the share! ^^
  4. Jon says:
    I think that you have to be a little careful with RSS submission, do some other link building first. I once did some RSS submissions (after being advised to) and for months after my new blogs were being scraped and ranked in Google before my own article was published. So make sure you at least get some directory links first.
  5. Shadab says:
    RSS feeds take the entire part of content and a link back to the original source and in my previous comments as I asked to you that can I submit my whole post into article directories and a link back to the original source. So please tell me that there is any difference between both methods because I know for RSS feeds but I am not sure for republish entire post to directories.
  6. Rose says:
    Hi Josh, I am in need of this list, thank you for sharing. ;)
  7. Ayden says:
    Hey there Josh, Agreed that RSS feed submission is an important part. This is part of my weekly seo tasks that I do for all my sites. It takes some time - but it's well worth it.
  8. Selina says:
    Thanks for the list Josh. Do you know of a program that will do automatic RSS submission that you can recommend? Is there a WordPress plugin that will do it for me? Do you recommend Feedburner? Thanks Selina
    • Mark says:
      Selina, Really the only and best way to submit to link, RSS or article directories is to outsource it. This give you the ability to outsource far beyond anything you can do by yourself. Mark
  9. Michael Aulia says:
    Time to do some manual RSS submissions :) I remember paying someone cheap last time to submit to over a hundred of RSS directories. Might want to do it again as it's been a couple of years now
  10. John says:
    Thanks for sharing huge list Josh, Are you using any validation tool before submitting rss feed in list of sites you had mention in this post, currently i am using W3C (http://validator.w3.org/feed/) and RSS Advisory Board (http://www.rssboard.org/rss-validator/). Thanks again for list John
  11. James Pruitt says:
    That is a great list. thanks for sharing. On top of those, you can also use your feed to add links on a lot of the web2.0 sites like Squidoo lenses and HubPages, as well as using them with your Digg account to automatically submit your latest posts.
  12. Josh Thompson says:
    the top 10 are my most often used services, the good part is you generally only need to submit once, but if you submit once a week or twice a week you will see better results. 2RSS is also one of my frequently used services. Josh.
  13. Fran Aslam the Onlinewriter says:

    • Josh Thompson says:
      list is sorted accordingly to what i feel returns the highest results. The top being the best. Josh.
      • ZK says:
        Thanks Josh for the reply.So we are taking top 5 at the moment.
  15. AJ Clarke says:
    I actually havn't done a whole lot of RSS submitting. I did a bit when I started but looks like there are some new sites out there. Thanks for the links. Finding good RSS directories isn't very easy. ;)
    • ZK says:
      Yes now a days getting a good list is quite tough ... any public announcement of any list and you will see within one day such websites got spam attack.
  16. Ryan Biddulph says:
    Hi Josh, Great list of RSS feeds here, impressive. I submit to a few of these now but may bump it up after reading your post. Thanks for sharing! RB
  17. DiTesco says:
    I second @john here.. did not know that there were this many RSS syndication sites. I only use two of them on your list and also BEs RSS paid program. Do you think it is wise to be on "all of them"? Would you max it out with only a certain number? Which ones are the best? Sorry too many questions :)
    • ZK says:
      Yes we would love to see if you can pick top 5 or top 10 from this list.That will be really helpful.
  18. Suresh Khanal says:
    Aah! Most of the links are broken. Some display 404 and some are not relevant. Could you please check them once?
    • ZK says:
      I would search for the words which added to that links and will try to find out.But however Josh, will recommend you to check the links once again and reqyest famousblogger to edit it accordingly.
  19. JasonB says:
    Nice list and to think some blogger were claiming the death of RSS.
  20. Extreme John says:
    Wow now that's a hot list of RSS Subscription services, I had no idea there were that many. Thank you.
  21. Suresh Khanal says:
    I was unaware of these services and never realized we could submit our blogs to the RSS services. When reading the title I thought it was a post about BlogEngage RSS Program. Your long list is a valuable asset for any blogger. Thousand thanks for this.
