Ways to Promote Your Blog's RSS Feed

It is not an exaggeration to say that the most overlooked blog promotion way is RSS propagation over various RSS feed directories.

The RSS feed link on your blogs is mostly placed on least looked place.  Your blog readers are rarely n aware of it. Your first task is to make it more visible on your blog.

Adding a large RSS feed button in a prominent place on you blog home page template is very important step in promoting your blog.

In fact I would advise you to create page on your blog that explains what the RSS feed is and why it can make it easier for them to view your content. There are blogs that I remember wherein they have linked to this page in their blog posts.

Of course the most popular way to promote your RSS feed is to use RSS feed directories that publish the contents of your RSS feed. Having your feed published at an RSS directory site means that the visitors to those feed directories would find your blog posts.

Search Engines and RSS feed directories.

All links to your blog content that are published with the feed will become backlinks to your website, which will encourage search engines to index and rank your blog.

How to find RSS feed directories?

You can find RSS directories by searching using terms such as "RSS directory", "RSS feed directory", "RSS directory list", "publish RSS feeds" etc. There are about 50 to 60 RSS feed directories out there. Searching and compiling them would a marathon task.

Promote your blog in RSS Hugger.

One of my earlier posts about monetizing our blog with FeedBurner received a few responses. Many bloggers are realizing the power of news aggregator aka RSS Feeds.

My dear friend Subhash wrote in his blog about the value of RSS Hugger in promoting our blogs. After reading his post, I paid a visit to RSS Hugger.

Let us see how this works:
Before that, read this piece of news that may inspire you to get listed in RSS Hugger.
"rssHugger has been nominated for a $10,000 grant from IdeaBlob for being one of the best business ideas in November."

"This website helps bloggers promote their blogs, and to help visitors discover new blogs that write about subjects that the readers are interested in." This is a cool idea really.

If you write a review about them in your blog and let them know about it, you can get your blog listed for free. Else, the fee is $20 that is valid for the next 10 years.

Naturally, you can expect an increase in your blog's traffic and more importantly, you may gain valuable backlinks for your blog.

Submit to RSS network.

Please do me a favor.
Go to http://www.rss-network.com/submitrss.php and submit your blog's feed url and notice the result.

I kept trying and always got an error message that the 'Title' is missing though there is no provision to fill up the title of my blog. In that website, there is no 'Contact us' link also.

I was recommended to submit my blogs' RSS url in this RSS network. It is supposed to improve search engine ranking and link popularity. I was given a big list of such sites and this was the first site.

I am looking for guidance from you.

Thanks friend.
