Why Use Feeds on Websites?

Because displaying relevant RSS feeds on your pages gives you more information about your topic that rotates and changes automatically. When used in conjunction with your own content, it can help your search rankings.

When visitors come to your website, they’re looking for information. They may be looking for information about a particular product or industry, or they may be looking for recipes, for something that you sell. Obviously they’re looking for something.

The best thing you can do for your visitors is to give them what they want, and add plenty of content to your own website that you meticulously write yourself, and add on a regular basis.

Now obviously, you can’t do that all the time, but there are other experts in your field or industry to do write all the time, and they syndicate that content through RSS for others to use.

Search Engines
The search engines love relevant content on a website, and they like fresh new content even more. By supplementing your existing website with RSS feeds from relevant industries, you are giving people more information about your chosen page topic, and you’re giving the search engines. What they want to see as well, which is fresh, relevant content added all the time.

Can this be exploited for better search results?
Like any tool, overuse is certainly a possibility, and is not recommended. The idea behindFfeed Commander is not to generate pages of other people’s content on your own website. The idea is to supplement your existing pages with RSS feeds, either from your own blog/article database, or from other relevant industry sources.
