In some ways RSS is very similar to HTML, the language commonly used to create websites. Just as with HTML, webmasters using traditional search engine optimization tactics when creating an RSS feed will find that their RSS feed receives additional exposure and interest.Complete Article - &lt;a href="http://www.rss-specifications.com/rss-seo.htm" target="blank" Search Engine Optimization for RSS </font> <p> <font size="3" face="Verdana"> &nbsp; </font> </div> </li> <li class="syndication-list-item"> <font face="Verdana"> <a href="http://www.rss-specifications.com/rss-for-business.htm" title="RSS for Business"> <font size="3"> RSS for Business </font> </a> <span class="syndication-list-item-date"> <font size="3"> (Thu, 10 Mar 2005 09:30:00 -0500) </font> </span> </font> <div class="syndication-list-item-description"> <font size="3" face="Verdana"> RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is a new way to broadcast corporate news and structured information. RSS offers a quick, easy corporate communication channel. The RSS contents are published as a feed and the feed&#39;s content keep customers, partners and journalists abreast of corporate news and information. The RSS feeds are read using a tool referred to as a news aggregator, or an RSS reader. The aggregator periodically checks to see if the RSS feed has been updated. As the feed is updated, new information will automatically appear in the RSS reader.While RSS was at one point only considered to be a means to deliver news headlines, RSS has quickly become a powerful medium to disseminate all kinds of information. As traditional marketers are attempting to rein in content delivery, measuring e-mail open rates, click-throughs and conversions, Internet users are fighting to gain control over the content they receive. Savvy marketers and business owners are using RSS as a way to improve corporate communication and increase their external exposure and brand appeal.&nbsp; What is the enclosure tag? RSS 2.0 is quickly becoming the definitive RSS standard, all because of its support for the enclosure tag. The enclosure tag is an optional field in the RSS 2.0 specification that allows the feed publisher to include a link to a file. The file can be just about anything.Complete Article - &lt;a href="http://www.rss-specifications.com/rss-for-business.htm" target="blank"&gt;RSS for Business&lt;/a&gt; </font> <p> &nbsp; </div> </li> <li class="syndication-list-item"> <font face="Verdana"> <a href="http://www.rss-specifications.com/news-you-choose.htm" title="RSS: News You Choose"> <font size="3"> RSS: News You Choose </font> </a> <span class="syndication-list-item-date"> <font size="3"> (Thu, 24 Feb 2005 10:00:00 -0500) </font> </span> </font> <div class="syndication-list-item-description"> <font size="3" face="Verdana"> Publishers and webmasters provide content and news in an RSS feed. Users view the content of interest in an RSS reader or news aggregator. The aggregator or reader contains the collection of feeds that are of interest to the user. As the RSS feed is updated the content in the reader or aggregator updates with the new information. At any point, users can remove a feed from their aggregator or reader and no longer receive information from that source. Ultimately, the user is choosing the news and content they wish to view.&nbsp; As RSS has increased in popularity more and more webmasters and publishers have adopted RSS as an alternative communication stream.
