RSS can benefit your blogging activities in two different ways: it can help you generate traffic and it can help you retain traffic. RSS can benefit your traffic-generation efforts by adding fresh, optimized content to your blog automatically; and it can benefit your traffic retention rate by providing better, updated content for your blog visitors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, how can rss benefit your blogging activities in other ways? If you own a blog, you will have to constantly update it with fresh content, so you can ping more often and so you can get higher rankings for your targeted key phrases. Aggregating and using RSS feeds can benefit your blogging activities significantly by allowing you to add fresh, targeted content to your blog without actually updating it yourself. Whenever a search engine visitors your blog, it will record your RSS feed updates as fresh and possibly unique, targeted content.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can rss benefit your blogging activities in other ways? If you own a blog, you can further enhance the amount of unique visitors you get by using RSS to syndicate your updates. In addition to netting you several back links on blogs and websites (which will increase your off page search engine optimization score), it will also net you some unique visitors through direct links from other blogs and sites.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can rss benefit your blogging activities by recycling traffic? If your site aggregates a number of important authority sites via RSS feed, you will become an authority site aggregator at the very least, which is useful for people looking to find authority sites on your given topic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In summary, how can rss benefit your blogging activities? RSS can benefit your blog by generating traffic – by improving your actual search engine rankings and by increasing the amount of direct click-thrust you receive – and by helping you retain traffic – by positioning your site as an authority aggregator and by providing better, original content for blog visitors.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/4270630200682053762" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/4270630200682053762" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://da-blogging.blogspot.com/2010/06/how-can-rss-benefit-your-blogging.html" rel="alternate" title="How Can RSS Benefit Your Blogging Activities?" type="text/html"/><author><name>DA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10129987274924637151</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="16" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif" width="16"/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524023516086001351.post-7394894785181102150</id><published>2010-05-19T21:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-19T21:02:04.426-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="5 Super Ways to Drive Traffic to Your Blog"/><title type="text">5 Super Ways to Drive Traffic to Your Blog</title><content type="html">&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Everyone says that to make an impression on people you have to open your mouth and speak. Sometimes it is what you don't say.  You can't really open your mouth on the Internet, but you can write to get your point across.  And this is really not hard to do.  Thanks to the Internet, you can be anywhere in the world and enter a forum or discussion board and leave comments people will read and respond to.  On most you can leave comments that will actually drive traffic to your blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It takes time to understand that all comments are not will have their desired effects and most people will ignore them.  You will have to learn to leave effective comments in order to not waste an opportunity or give the wrong impression of what  you wanted to give.  Listed below are 7 ways to take action on effective blogging.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first would be to look around the Internet and be selective on which blog or blogs you will leave your comments on.  Choose blogs that compliment your blog—ones that may deal with the same topics you do.  Craft your statements to begin the buzz about your blog.  Don't just drop into any site and leave comments—you will not get the traffic you want.  Focus on what you want and pick great sites to build your traffic.  Make sure your comments have a purpose and craft your comments to that purpose. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When crafting your comments, know exactly what you are saying.  Don't just dump any comment in and hope people will believe what you are saying.  Check all your facts before posting your comments.  Your blog entries are to get you noticed and hopefully to develop some respect toward you.  Write meaningful short statements that are to the point of what you want to say.  Be purposeful and always leave a relevant comment to direct traffic to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When leaving your comments always avoid foul or strong language.  There are many many ways to get your point across without upsetting the others who use the blog or the owner of the blog.  Many, many sites have rules about how to write comments—read them.  Contemplate on what you want to say and write an appropriate comment.  Be calm and use correct language grammar for your intended blog writing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't make comments on blogs or forums and leave them hanging.  Check for replies and answer them.  There is absolutely nothing worse for you is if someone is asking a question about your comment and you never answer.  Keep your comments professional and friendly and you will get the buzz about your blog.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Above all don't be rude to others in your comments or answers.  If others are rude to you, think about what they are saying and see if you didn't bring it on yourself.  Reflect on what you said and what they said and if you mus comment—keep it polite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When you practice these things you can be assured that people will respect you and respond to your blog comments. This, in turn, will drive the traffic you desire and could make you a bundle of money in the process.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/7394894785181102150" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/7394894785181102150" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://da-blogging.blogspot.com/2010/05/5-super-ways-to-drive-traffic-to-your.html" rel="alternate" title="5 Super Ways to Drive Traffic to Your Blog" type="text/html"/><author><name>DA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10129987274924637151</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="16" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif" width="16"/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524023516086001351.post-2838304912349909038</id><published>2010-05-02T05:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-02T05:17:08.230-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="What Is a Blogging Tory?"/><title type="text">What Is a Blogging Tory?</title><content type="html">&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The term &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Blogging Tory&lt;/span&gt; refers to any one of the many authors affiliated with the conservative Canadian community known as The Blogging Tories. Today, there are over a hundred and fifty text-based blogs associated with the group, and there are new Blogging Tories every day. The Tories stand as an inspiring example of a successful online community where the ever-increasing numbers of affiliated members enjoy a fertile environment for discussion and debate about the ideas that shape the face of Canada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The majority of &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Tory &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;blogger&lt;/span&gt; do make political events and topics the focus of their blogs, but not all of the content that a Blogging Tory creates and publishes is overtly related to the movements of the Canadian parliament or the prime minister. Although the community members were brought together by a shared conservative viewpoint, the fact that not all of the postings on all of the member's blogs focus on political topics is one of the most exciting things about the Blogging Tories. On any given day, the main &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;web site's&lt;/span&gt; blog-roll may feature postings about Olympic medalists, a &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;James Bond&lt;/span&gt; film festival in &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Quebec&lt;/span&gt;, or a comical personal experience with a telemarketer. The idea that having a political affiliation in common makes it possible to have a fruitful discussion about other kinds of topics has interesting implications for how online communities are established and how they grow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/2838304912349909038" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/2838304912349909038" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://da-blogging.blogspot.com/2010/05/what-is-blogging-tory.html" rel="alternate" title="What Is a Blogging Tory?" type="text/html"/><author><name>DA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10129987274924637151</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="16" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif" width="16"/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524023516086001351.post-8254224383735972861</id><published>2010-04-23T12:55:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-04-23T12:58:33.936-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="What is RSS?"/><title type="text">What is RSS?</title><content type="html">&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;What is RSS? RSS stands for more than one thing. Usually, RSS stands for “really simply syndication,” but it can also mean “rich site summary,” or “RDF site summary” -- RDF standing for “resource description framework.” That answers the question of what is RSS, but what can it do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is RSS in the context of really simple syndication? It is a tool that allows sites to give a quick summary of important links and descriptions in XML format. This essentially allows them to syndicate their content by allowing other blog owners and webmasters to use this summary as part of a list of summaries on a specific topic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blogmasters and webmasters collect these various summaries with something called a feed aggregator or a feed reader. Rather than asking “what is RSS?” this tool will ask “where is RSS” -- and then find it. An aggregator finds RSS feeds to aggregate from selected large sites – such as Yahoo and MSN – and selected smaller sites, such as hand-picked personal blogs and news sites.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The blogmasters and webmasters then take the script generated from the aggregator and insert it into their blogs. This then creates an RSS feed that automatically pulls news items and blog posts whenever they appear. Whenever the blog or site page is refreshed, it will display the latest items.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is good for two reasons. If you use your own RSS feed, you can get your content syndicated across the Internet without actually paying to submit dozens of press releases and contact dozens of blog owners and webmasters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additionally, using RSS feeds is good if you own a blog and want to add fresh content. This will allow you to constantly put new content links and summaries on your blog without spending the time to hunt around for related information. All you will have to do is select a feed aggregator and select a potential feeds from a list of news sites and authority blogs. Additionally, you will be able to input your own selections, allowing you to create custom feeds. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what is RSS? RSS is a simple way in which to drive traffic to your blog and to display summaries of other blogs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/8254224383735972861" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/8254224383735972861" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://da-blogging.blogspot.com/2010/04/what-is-rss.html" rel="alternate" title="What is RSS?" type="text/html"/><author><name>DA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10129987274924637151</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="16" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif" width="16"/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524023516086001351.post-8883118048902280183</id><published>2010-04-08T13:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-04-08T13:24:09.518-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Blogging News Stories as They Happen"/><title type="text">Blogging News Stories as They Happen</title><content type="html">&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Blogging news stories as they unfold is one of the most exciting and controversial applications of technology that blogger have discovered. One thing that makes the blogosphere so active is the fact that it is possible to update a blog instantaneously, so the news on blogs tends to be more current than the news in the paper, or on television. Unlike news delivered by these other media, news that appears on blogs does not have to travel through a series of editors and administrators before it reaches the public eye. This has some advantages, and some distinct disadvantages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the most notable cases of news hitting a blog before appearing in other media took place in July 2005 when terrorism struck London. As passengers were evacuated from a subway car near an explosion, one man took several photographs of the scene with his cellular phone, and within an hour these images were posted online. First-person accounts of the catastrophe began appearing on blogs soon after these photos appeared, and people all over the world learned about the events in London by reading the words and seeing the photos posted by blogger.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fact that these stories and images were being spread directly by individuals operating without the added filter of a reporter helped to make the crisis feel very immediate to people across the globe. When it comes to blogging, news often appears in a very personal context. This has the potential to be the beginning of an exciting new era of reporting, one that takes "New Journalism" to it's logical next step by putting the power to shape how the news is written and read directly into the hands of the public.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many blogger and cultural commentators who are champions of the weblog movement feel that this growing trend of individuals who getting their news from blogs is a good thing, because it makes the flow of information more democratic. By decentralizing the control of news, blogs allow more voices to enter the field of debate about important current events. However, many people are adamantly opposed to the use of blogs as news outlets, and there are plenty of good arguments on this side of the debate. Unlike newspapers or television stations, few blogs have fact- checkers, and there is little attention paid to journalistic accountability on many blogs. This can lead to the rapid spread of misinformation, and more than one falsehood has taken the blogosphere by storm. The questions about whether blogging news as it happens is ethical or not are very complicated, but no matter where you stand on the topic of current events blogs you are almost sure to agree that this movement has the potential to revolutionize how modern people get their news.&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/8883118048902280183" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/8883118048902280183" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://da-blogging.blogspot.com/2010/04/blogging-news-stories-as-they-happen.html" rel="alternate" title="Blogging News Stories as They Happen" type="text/html"/><author><name>DA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10129987274924637151</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="16" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif" width="16"/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524023516086001351.post-6759402550385359045</id><published>2010-03-28T11:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-03-28T11:10:44.440-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="How to Create Your Own Blog Account"/><title type="text">How to Create Your Own Blog Account</title><content type="html">&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Creating your &lt;em&gt;own blog&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;account&lt;/em&gt; is relatively easy, especially when compared to building a website. Even if you're using a &lt;em&gt;what-you-see-is-what-you-get&lt;/em&gt; (&lt;strong&gt;WYSIWYG&lt;/strong&gt;) editor to build a simple website, you will still have to design every page, purchase a domain and hosting, and figure out how to upload your work to your site. This is not so with a blog. If you create your own blog account with with a large blog network, you will actually be able to do it for &lt;em&gt;free&lt;/em&gt; and without worry that you wont be able to figure out how to upload new pages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So how do you go about creating your own blog account? You should start by selecting the type of blog you wish to create. For instance, are you using blogs to &lt;em&gt;promote&lt;/em&gt; your &lt;em&gt;business&lt;/em&gt; or for to chronicle your daily life? This will affect how you go about creating your own blog account.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're using a blog to chronicle your daily life, you may want to create an account with a network such as &lt;strong&gt;My space&lt;/strong&gt;. My space will give you a simple means to design your blog, to update it, and to communicate with other network users. Creating your own blog account with My space is actually &lt;em&gt;completely free&lt;/em&gt;; and you wont actually have to host the blog yourself. Instead, My space will host it on their own network and will also provide you with all the &lt;em&gt;tools&lt;/em&gt; you need to update it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you're creating your own blog account simply to promote your business, you may want to open an account with Google Blogger—especially if you do not &lt;em&gt;own a website&lt;/em&gt;. Upon creating your own blog account, Blogger will allow you to customize the template and the &lt;em&gt;sub domain&lt;/em&gt; you use to display your blog. If you're trying to target a specific &lt;strong&gt;key phrase&lt;/strong&gt; with your blog, you may want to use that exact key phrase as the &lt;em&gt;sub&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;domain&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you have completed this process, you will want to spend some time searching through B logger's various options. For instance, to &lt;strong&gt;optimize your blog&lt;/strong&gt; completely, you will want to consider how many posts you display on each page and whether or not you will allow comments.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/6759402550385359045" rel="edit" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6524023516086001351/posts/default/6759402550385359045" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/><link href="http://da-blogging.blogspot.com/2010/03/how-to-create-your-own-blog-account.html" rel="alternate" title="How to Create Your Own Blog Account" type="text/html"/><author><name>DA</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10129987274924637151</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image height="16" rel="http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail" src="https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif" width="16"/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6524023516086001351.post-7267499999663043035</id><published>2010-03-21T09:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-03-21T09:14:05.740-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Blogging Teens"/><title type="text">Blogging Teens</title><content type="html">&lt;div align="justify"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every day, blogs are created by people of all ages and from all walks of life, but when it comes to &lt;em&gt;blogging&lt;/em&gt;, teen writers are truly on the cutting edge of the movement. Because today's teenagers are the first generation of people to have grown up using the Internet at every stage of their development, many adolescents have a seemingly innate sense of how to use web technology to express their innermost thoughts and ideas. Older writers often experience a kind of learning curve when they begin to blog, but many young people find that using a word processor and blogging software feels more natural and direct a mode of communication than writing in a diary ever could. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the reasons why blogs have undergone a kind of explosion in the &lt;em&gt;teen community&lt;/em&gt; and are growing by leaps and bounds is the fact that they provide a unique mixture of visibility and anonymity. A teenager can invite friends and peers to read his or her blog with a simple email, thereby winning attention or possibly even praise. Of course, with visibility usually comes the possibility of embarrassment, but the fact that it is possible to blog anonymously with an invented handle or nickname negates a lot of the potential for humiliation. Many a blogging teen lives in fear that a parent or guardian will discover his or her blog, but by publishing under an alias a teenager can spill his or her secrets without fear of being traced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Outside the world of blogging, teen writers often have very &lt;em&gt;limited opportunities&lt;/em&gt; to be published. Magazines and journals are often reticent to publish young writers who may not have as much credibility as older writers with a lot of experience and extensive credits to their names. This can discourage adolescents from writing or from seeking chances to publish their work.
