Most of you have seen those little
buttons on websites labeled RSS or XML. If you are
wondering what they are, RSS means Really Simple
Syndication. Really simple because when you subscribe to a
site that has this aspect, you keep up-to-date alongside
new data without having to check the site every day. This
is actually acceptable news because you can use it to get
newsfeeds from major news networks, news on new movies,
even your favorite musician's trip dates or CD releases.
This new weave to the Internet is extremely valuable to
you as a Internet marketer too. Imagine replacing email
marketing next to RSS marketing. People actually subscribe
meaning they crave your report updates, similar to opt-in
newsletters. With newsletters you have to write them and
your site content. With RSS, when you update your content,
all subscribers are notified by their newsreaders.
Newsreaders are special software that review RSS feeds. To
get started, download a free RSS reader.
If you use a Windows PC, go to http://www.rssreader.com
For Mac users, see http://ranchero.com/netnewswire
Before you are set up, here's all you or your customers
have to do...
See how much you can learn about money when you take a
little time to read a well-researched article? Don't miss
out on the rest of this great information.
Right-click (control-click for Mac users) on any RSS
button on a site, blog or news source that interests you.
Select Copy Shortcut ("Copy Link to Clipboard"
for Mac, "Copy Link Location" for Firefox
browsers), and paste that URL into your RSS Reader. And
that is it, you are subscribed. Once you get started, your
favorite parts of the Web come to you. No need to go out
and check for updates all the time. If you do not want to
download software, subscribe to your favorite feeds
through My Yahoo or My MSN.
So how does any of this create you money?
More traffic means extra cash. By placing RSS on your
website or your blog, anyone can subscribe automatically
and understand when a new product or service is available.

To take advantage of the traffic you have to set up your
RSS feed available to website visitors and submit your
feed message to RSS, blog and XML kind directories.
