RSS PIONEERS SET OFF GOLD RUSH – Web Hosting
RSS PIONEERS SET OFF GOLD RUSH
Tony Dean
The nature of cyberspace is changing fast with the rush now on to set up rss news feeds. Every gram of news and current affairs is gleaned from the four corners of the globe so that we may be informed as to what is happening in hundreds of different commercial fields of endeavour.
Everything from what new item is selling well on eBay, to what "Wired Magazine" is saying about the latest technology. More and more magazine and newspaper publishers are gaining a foothold on this new juggernaut which is going to change the way we gather news.
Advertisers too are not left out. Already some of the largest media companies in the world are now poised to find advertising space for their clients branding campaigns, on any available web page that regularly features in rss feeds.
The media companies with billions of ad dollars to spend, will they say, be spending less on newspaper and t.v. advertising in the coming years, and will concentrate instead on blogs and rss feeds.
Competition will be fierce for every available space on the most popular feeds, some run by newspapers!
Many freelance journalists will be running rss feeds in direct competition with the newspaper employers who now pay them to gather news for their publication. There will be no editor to censor their news items, they will be free to write whatever they want.
This new found freedom for anyone in the world to be able to express their opinions without it costing anything, will make for a new House Of Babel, with maybe up to several millions of rss feeds within the next five years run by private individuals all over the world. The only needed resource to set up a rss feed is free hosting on a server anywhere in the world, and these web hosts are plentiful.
Press releases submitted to the biggest and well known media release agencies are appearing rapidly on rss feeds, with the publishers of these feeds scambling to put content on their feed almost on an hourly basis.
Commercial enterprises have never had it so good to get their press release into circulation so quickly as more and more commercial news, via press releases, is needed to fill the ever available channels being run by rss feed publishers. Even badly written press releases that under normal circumstances would not find a publisher willing to print it, will be readily accepted by rss feed publishers looking avidly for more content. This content may only be on a rss feed for the space of one hour before it is replaced by something else, but it will have the potential to be seen by lillions of people world wide.
This is the potential that big media companies are now eyeing.
One rss feed publisher charges $6,000 for an item of news to be on one of his feeds for the space of one day. So the potential for earning substantial incomes from publishing your own rss feed can be huge.
Many web publishers will change tack and embrace rss feeds as being potentially more commercially viable than publishing a web site.
Many spammers will change to running as many rss feeds as possible to saturate the market, since spam filters are proving very effective for email.
How easy is it to put up a rss feed
If you have web hosting already, it can be set up in 5 minutes!
All it needs is a text file placed on the server, and the feed is live to the whole world. Instant rss feed publishing!

The New WebPosition Gold 3 . . . Definitely Worth the Wait – Marketing
The New WebPosition Gold 3 . . . Definitely Worth the Wait
Robin Nobles
At the special request of my students, Ive taken a long look at WebPosition Gold 3 http://www.webposition.com, and I can honestly say Im amazed at how this software program has matured and developed through the years.
Lets take a tour of the most popular software program in the search engine marketing industry, and lets see "whats new" in WebPosition 3.
The New Interface . . .
When you first open the software, past users of WebPosition will be surprised at the totally new interface. Its clean, simple, and quite appealing. You can still click on New or Open on the top toolbar to start a new project or open an existing one, or you can click on any of the icons on the left-hand side of the screen.
Important: If you experience any problems connecting to the Internet via WebPosition, try adding WebPosition to your accepted programs list in your firewall software. Or, you could try temporarily disabling your firewall to see if its related to that. If you still have any problems, simply write to help@webposition.com. WebPosition is well known for having a top- notch tech support department.
Wordtracker Keywords . . .
With WebPosition 3, you can now conduct keyword research with Wordtracker right through WebPosition 3! If you dont have a Wordtracker account, youll be using the free trial version of Wordtracker, which means youll be researching using the MSN search engine and Keyword Universe. If you have a Wordtracker account, you can enter your Wordtracker username and password by clicking on the Edit menu on the WebPosition toolbar and choosing, "Wordtracker Settings."
Important: Since WebPosition 3 now has the Wordtracker keyword area, if you have a Wordtracker account, should you cancel that account No! Unless youre going to be happy with the free trial version of Wordtracker, dont cancel your Wordtracker account. Instead, use the WebPosition 3 interface to pull up your existing Wordtracker account.
Reporter . . .
Though this feature isnt new, my favorite part of WebPosition has always been Reporter, and it still is. This one area is worth the cost of the entire software program.
As search engine marketers, its important to keep up with your search engine rankings. You need to know which pages are ranking in the top 30 for which keywords.
While its important for you to know your rankings, remember that you dont need to check your rankings every day or even every week. Once a month or once every other week is sufficient.
Use moderation! Dont check hundreds or thousands of keywords across several domains. Dont hammer the search engines. Remember that youre using their resources when you check rankings. Run ranking reports at night PST.
Page Critic . . .
After creating your pages, youll want to run them through a software program for some last minute checks.
For example, is the page too long Too short Are you overusing your keyword phrase Underusing it
WebPosition 3 offers some very helpful suggestions that you may want to consider.
With WebPosition 3, theyve introduced a "Generic Search Engine," which Im particularly pleased about. Over the last few years, many search engine marketers no longer create engine specific pages, so having a generic choice in Page Critic will be extremely helpful.
Tip to make Page Critic easier to use: When you first begin using Page Critic, you may find it easier to focus on the Page Averages section only. Click on that tab at the top of the Page Critic results. Go through each of the suggestions.
But, if you cant make the change or if it doesnt work for you, move on. Dont spend hours stressing over it. If you want to work with other sections of Page Critic after you get used to the program, you can certainly do so. But by cutting down on the amount of information youre focusing on in the beginning, you may feel its not as overwhelming.
Mission Manager . . .
Im very impressed with this new addition to WebPosition! But first, let me explain what "missions" are.
Every time you work on a project in WebPosition, youre creating a "mission." For example, when you run a ranking report on a particular domain, youre running a Reporter "mission" on that domain.
When you run a page through Page Critic, youre running a Page Critic "mission" on that page.
Mission Manager lets you manage those missions from one central location. I can see where this area will be particularly handy for those people who manage several domains. You can see at a glance which missions are scheduled to be run and at what times.
WebTrends Analytics . . .
This one area of WebPosition is a little confusing, mainly because WebTrends has many different software and Web-based solutions.
However, please dont let the choices stop you from trying WebTrends. Analyzing the traffic to your site is a crucial "next step" to success for your online business, and WebTrends has always been a leader in log analysis solutions.
In the beginning, why not try WebTrends On Demand, which is a Web-based service where youre given a small amount of code to cut and paste to the bottom of each of your Web pages. When you want to check your log files, you can log into their Web site. Its an easy-to-use, cost effective solution that youll certainly want to consider. Trial version: http://www.netiq.com/webtrends/products/webtrends/trial.asp
Cost Remains the Same . . .
One thing that has really impressed me is that WebPosition has kept the cost of this new version the same, though they certainly could have justified a price increase. Plus, if you have a current version of WebPosition, you can upgrade at a 50% discount. Very fair! Trial version: http://www.webposition.com/order/trial.asp
In Conclusion . . .
WebPosition Gold 3 http://www.webposition.com has once again proven to be the leader in search engine marketing software. This exciting new software program deserves a long look by anyone in the SEO industry.
