Raise Your Website Traffic with RSS - Blogs and YAHOO!
By Kamau Austin
«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»
It is the trend du jour. They are the subject of pundit press,
guru glare, and is ready for mainstream adoption. RSS feeds
and their communication kin the blog -- are bandied about
as the next big thing.
Everywhere you look there are articles and ebooks touting
the electronic affinity and high value of these two forms of
media creation and distribution. However can these two
forms of digital media drive more traffic to your site, or --
are they just hype?
Blogs are short for web logs and are like daily dairies on the web.
Blogs started out as ways for Internet reality types to share
their lives with other people on the web, without having to
learn very complicated web design applications like
Dreamweaver or Microsoft FrontPage.
While on the other hand RSS feeds are the natural extension of Blogs.
RSS without getting into all the arguments over the name
(for the purpose of this article) stands for Really Simple Syndication.
RSS feeds can take your blog postings and syndicate a preview
of your blog headlines all over the Internet. Therefore in
theory RSS feeds can drive traffic to your blogs and websites
similar to how search engines have become major marketing channels.
If your blogs headlines are syndicated on major high traffic websites,
RSS directories and Internet Portals it could be another major
source of traffic to your website. But how effective is blog marketing
to the average Internet marketer who doesn’t have a major personal
brand name like John Reese, Yanik Silver, or Dr. Ken Evoy?
This question is reflected in the concerns of bottom-line focused
Stephanie McIntyre, president of eSales Unlimited, an eBay Power Seller,
auction trainer and coach. Stephanie has generated over $200,000
in profitable sales on eBay and has low tolerance for marketing hype.
"I am not convinced that blogging can really drive traffic or profitable
sales states Ms. McIntyre. Internet Gurus like James Maduk haven’t
convinced me that I can really make money with a blog."
She isn’t alone in her skepticism. Many online business people
are confused why all this hype is being created about blogs and
RSS feeds. Many wonder if they can really deliver in their potential
to drive more traffic and sales to business orientated Internet websites.
In short, can blogs and RSS boost really boost our website traffic?
I put the technology to the test in the last four weeks to get
some definite answers.
I found blogs are having some major income impact on the
bottom-line of some companies and business people.
Despite many reservations by some Netpreneurs blogs and
RSS feeds have been boosting the bottom-lines of some marketers.
Willie Crawford, a well known Internet marketer generates over
$1000 dollars a day from mostly blog generated Adsense™ revenue.
Blogging for Crawford has become yet another profitable part of his business.
Weblogs Inc., a publisher of almost 100 targeted niche blogs is
noted as being on its way to generating 1 million dollars in
Adsense™ revenue! This had to be a compelling reason for
AOL to recently buy Weblogs Inc., for a whopping 25 million.
Still another very successful Internet business person
I spoke with (who doesn’t what to be identified) uses blogs
as a form of buzz advertising resulting in $50,000 in indirect
eCommerce sales when properly timed. This business person
does close to 17 million dollars in online sales.
I also have been having good success saving time and money
by publishing quickly with blogs. My blogs generated good
income for me however I wanted to see if the distribution
of my blog headline via RSS feeds would bring in any new revenues.
One of the promotional ways blogs and RSS are purported
to increase your online traffic is the strategy of increasing
your website’s traffic with what I call horizontal SEO.
Horizontal SEO is called "winning the search engine lottery"
by Internet sales star John Reese.
Most SEO firms and web marketers focus solely on high rankings
for popular keywords (Vertical SEO) . In contrast a more
comprehensive search engine driven Internet marketing
campaign would scale more horizontally or deeper with more
rich keyword informed content pages.
In other words a horizontal SEO campaign would be like playing
the lottery. Your odds of winning the lottery are greater if
you have more tickets.
According to Reese "search engines algorithms change from
day to day. Therefore your ranking will go up or down.
But if you have more and more tickets in the SEO lottery
you have a better chance of winning."
Blogs and RSS feeds give you the ability to create and distribute
a lot of web information (content) on the fly that’s distributed
throughout the Internet at myriad media outlets. Blogs and
RSS feeds drive more traffic to your site by helping you win
the SEO lottery with horizontal SEO.
Blogs and RSS can be the easiest and most efficient way to
win the SEO lottery. They do this by creating lots of targeted
niche content on your and other partner sites that carry your feeds.
In the last 4 weeks I launched a website with a blog component
without optimizing it in the traditional vertical SEO fashion.
It doesn’t appear on top of any search engine results worth
mentioning. I wanted to see if the blog powered by RSS feed
would drive significant traffic to my site.
The results are amazing! I have been totally blown away
by the research. Check out why I have become a big believer
in blogging and RSS in part 2 of this article.

"Common Error Messages and How To React"
-------------------------------
Some common Windows error messages are less intimidating when you
have an idea of what the often cryptic message is referring to.
No, it's not the price of oil in Tehran. Error messages are
rarely if ever displayed because of a mistake you made. So the
best thing to do is read the following tips, maintain your
composure, and take control of the computer!
The first thing to do when an Error introduces itself is to read.
You can gain a lot of information from simply reading the
message. It might be something as simple as entering a password.
It could also be rather cryptic - Let's deal with four of the
most common messages right now.
1. Invalid Page Fault.
This occurs when the operating system (Windows) fails to actually
access information (data) that was requested by one of your
programs. It's as if the butler simply went to sleep on the job.
Remedy: Close the offending application that caused the error.
Fire the butler. But only temporarily.
2. Fatal Exception Error.
This happens when a program or the system itself tries to work
with sickly data, such as a corrupt file. Files get corrupted if
all the ducks aren't lined up just so. Everything has to be
absolutely precise, or wham! Fatal Exception. Nobody was hurt,
were they? I hope not!
Remedy: Close the offending application. Sometimes it's Windows.
3. General Protection Fault (GPF).
Your computer has to have
enough resources to support everything going on inside. If it
runs low, or resources leak into space, you may see a GPF. This
may also happen if two applications try to use the same memory
location, like two cars attempting the same parking stall. Fault!
Remedy: Again close the offending application.
4. Runtime Error.
These occur while applications are running. The
only way to cure them is to restart the application.
