Link Building

Many of your readers will want to follow you through an RSS feed. This makes it a lot easier for them to follow the sites they like. An RSS feed is a news feed, and users are able to combine all their feeds into one central location. That way they don’t have to waste time going to all the different sites they want to read. They open up their feed reeder and find all the content they have subscribed to.

At first thought you may be thinking that you don’t want to publish an RSS feed because you want your readers to come to your site. I thought the same thing in the beginning. However, many web-savvy individuals read all of their online content via RSS. If you don’t publish a feed, you will never attract that type of reader, which happens to be the type of reader that will link to you the most.

People that read using RSS are using very savvy technically, which makes them a lot more likely to have a site of their own. Readers that have their own sites are the only ones that link to you, so it’s definitely worth publishing an RSS feed. An easy way to offer a feed is by adding a blog to your site. WordPress create an RSS feed automatically, and I would recommend using them as your blog software anyway. They are by far the best out there.
