subject: How To Get Your Blogs Site Feed Listed In Yahoo A [print this page]


RSS Real Simple Syndication is a very Powerful technology

that has been around for quite some time and when used

correctly, can build an audience overnight.

If you want a crash course on what RSS is, in more depth,

since the nature of this article is to show you how to get

your Blogs Site Feed listed in Yahoo! and MSN, I have

provided a link to a page full of articles on RSS related

issues. http www.bookstoretoday.com

Now, depending on where your Blog is hosted, whether its

through a free service like Blogger.com

http www.bookstoretoday.comor hosted on your websites server

you should have a Site Feed URL that has the .XML

extension.

This is your Site Feed URL .

You will usually locate it within your Settings area of Blog

control center.

Here is what mine looks like as an example

http www.allhottips.com

This URL is intended for a RSS News Reader, so disregard

its appearance.

Once you find your Site Feed URL , copy and paste it into

Notepad because you will need it for the next steps coming

ahead.

Now, what you need to do is go and set-up an My Yahoo and

My MSN account.

I have provided the links for you below.

My Yahoo http my.yahoo.com

My MSN http msn.com

It should only take you about 15 or 20 minutes at the most.

If you already have accounts with My Yahoo and My MSN,

read on.

This is assuming you already have your accounts set up, so

your next step is to Login to your My Yahoo account.

When you login, you will be taken to your Yahoo page

immediately.

What you want to do next is go look under the Yahoo search

box to the left and click on the Add Content link.

This will bring you to a new page.

From there, over to the right by the Find button you will

see an Add RSS by URL link, click on it.

A new window will open with a Web Form . Simply copy and

paste your Site Feed URL from Notepad into the web form

and click on the Add button.

Now, you should see your Blogs name infront of you. Simply

click on the yellow Add To My Yahoo button and your feed

will be added.

The next thing you should see is your Site Feed with your

Headlines.

Click on one of them, it should take you to your Blog, to

the desired Headline you chose.

Your My Yahoo page should Now have your Blogs Site Feed

Headlines listed at the bottom.

Scroll down to check. If you do not see them, it sometimes

takes up to 24 or 48 hours for them to appear, so just check

back later.

Now that thats done, everytime you update your Blog with

NEW content, it will Automatically update on your My Yahoo

page and everybody else pages who have subscribe to your

feed, plus, within 24 or 48 hours your feed will get Spidered

and Indexed by Yahoo.

Talk about getting the word out in a HURRY with very little

effort on your part.

This is Viral Marketing at its Best in my mind.

And... it is so simple to implement.

Okay.

Now it is time to do the same to your My MSN account as what

you did above to your My Yahoo page.

Here's the link to go login click on Sign In from main

page http www.allhottips.com Once your login to your My MSN account you should see an

Add Content link under the MSN logo to your left. Click

on it.

A pop-up should now be displaying. Simply copy and paste

your Site Feed URL from your Notepad into the web form

provided and click the Search button the green button with

the arrow.

You should now be looking at Check Box with your Blogs name

beside it. Check off your Site Feed URL and then press

the OK button at the bottom.

PRESTO Like magic... your Blogs site feed has now been

added to your My MSN page which will then be spidered in

the next 24 or 48 hours and Indexed by MSN.

That is the Power of BLOGS Web Logs and RSS Really Simple

Syndication combined with two Internet giants.

The only thing you have to bring to the table IS, fresh,

quality content that your audience WANTS, and do it on a

regular basis.

I post my articles that I write on a weekly basis, making

my Blog called... The Internet Wonders Blog

http www.bookstoretoday.com

You can do the same because I just showed you HOW.

In conclusion, creating BLOGS and using RSS as a vehicle to

syndicate your Blogs content is a Sure Fire way to get your

content spidered more frequently by search engines and the

exposure it deserves, which in turn, will build you a

large audience of buying customers that TRUST you.
