Hello World :-)
For those of you who are not using Feeds yet, I hope this helps you reconsider your decision. Of course, there are always exceptions, but when you have some websites which you plan to distribute beyond the usual web traffic visitors you normally have using browsers, feeds turn out to be a great option as these provide you with lots of updates on a regular basis automatically through a web portal. This is a great move forward because you can have lots of subscribers to your site and also subscribe to your favorite blogs, websites, and podcasts easily. This just shows how a technological transformation has revolutionized online advertising and profit making ventures in the best possible ways. Your online tour is now optimized with specific types of feeds in the most easy and time efficient way.

The advantages of using feeds are endless. For a website owner, this means more visibility and chances of multiplying revenue through sales as well when there are more and more subscribers reviewing the web content on a regular basis. Some of the really big names in this realm that constantly provide feeds include Amazon.com, ABCNews, Yahoo!,BBC News Headlines and Google News, just to mention a few. Another example is how Apple, using its distinctly functioning iTunes Music Store, provides a stunning array of thousands and thousands of podcasts, both video and audio, that may be downloaded, each being triggered by a feed.

Real Simple Syndication (RSS) feeds pose a terrific alternative in the context of e-mail as well because of the increasing number of spam worming through every net lover’s mailbox with updates that are less than effective. So when web site administrators got the RSS feeds option, it became the best and the easiest way for them to display their content on the site without worrying about the fate of mass newsletters delivered into the mailbox. No wonder, Intel provides an excellent suite of feeds and so does IBM and yes, Microsoft, too!

Known as one of the best and most distinguised provider for RSS feeds as well as blogs, FeedBurner is a well known name. By providing web based tools to help its publishers, podcasters as well as its bloggers, this is one of the largest feed and blog advertising providers with unparalleled content brought from some of the best known media companies in the world including Ziff Davis, Wired News and Wall Street Journal.

To sum up the importance of RSS Feeds, what you need to remember is that the best and most ideal way to deliver content to media is through feeds. With this brief overview, look at how you can utilize feeds to maximize visibility and revenue. !!! Good Luck !!!
