Press Releases are also thankful for technological breakthroughs. Though they may not be deemed as such, it still remains that RSS feeds pose as another means of distributing press releases, actually pertaining to daily posts we make on blog and web sites. Surely, there will be subscribers to posts of most sites and one thing that they are after are updates and latest posts.
PRWeb - Press Releases That WorkSource:http://www.a1-articledirectory.com/Article/All-You-Need-To-Know-About-Rss/6143To be able to use RSS, you first have to download a software (content management system), by which XML format can be read. The title and, excerpt of the article, and a link to the full article are shown. Other than just text, you can also insert multimedia files in RSS feeds like pictures, videos, mp3s and others. Broadcatching, picturecasting, photocasting, and podcasting are some features you can incorporate into your feed, but will not be discussed in this article.
RSS feeds subscription informs these subscribers each time a new post is made. Hence, it is an alarm of sorts. Rather than obliging patrons to keep on coming back, they can get a bird’s eye view of the post through these RSS feeds.
You must remember that not all posts may be of interest to people. Press release distribution can work well with RSS feeds as well since once sites are updated, they show these new posts which may solicit a visit to the source site to which it is hosted.
Just imagine the number of potential subscribers you have that will keep on coming back each time you make an update. Rather than hope for the best, one update is broadcasted through the web and once they see it, expect the traffic to rise so that they can see what the latest feeds are. Doesn’t this scenario cater to the same approach when press releases are composed and segregated? Lesser work but better opportunities, that is what RSS feeds have to offer for sites aching for attention and traffic. PRWeb - Online Promotion Service: Get Listed in Google News & Yahoo!

RSS Feeds: Press Releases On Steroids
Writing by Brick Marketing on Tuesday, 30 of October , 2007 at 11:30 am Leave a comment
RSS feeds are all the rage. They can be used on blogs, websites, podcasts, videos, and even press releases. One way to make the most of RSS feeds is to submit your press release to a press release distribution website that uses RSS feeds for distribution. That’s one way. It’s not the only way.
Another way you can use RSS feeds is to put your press releases on your own website with an RSS feed so that your traffic can subscribe directly to your press releases on your own website. This strategy works great for local businesses with a large number of media that might be interested in your press releases. You can add a media kit page to your website and upload all press releases to your media page, then invite all your local media persons to subscribe to your RSS feed. That way, they get every press release you write without the hassle of having to go look for it.

How To Target RSS Subscribers
Writing by Brick Marketing on Thursday, 18 of October , 2007 at 9:28 am Leave a comment
When it comes to press release distribution, there is more than one way to get the word out, create the buzz, or get the attention you crave for your business. One often overlooked way to ensure you get the attention your business needs is through RSS feeds.
PR Web Press Release Newswire has a load of RSS feeds that media persons can subscribe to. Chances are, media professionals you want to target with your press release subscribe to one or more of these feeds. It seems to reason then that if you want to ensure that they see your press release, that you target the RSS they will receive automatically. That’s easier said than done, however.
Targeting the RSS Feed of Choice
To target an RSS feed successfully, you need to know which feed to target. PR Web Press Release Newswire has its RSS feeds categorized in two ways: By industry or topic and by MSA. You may benefit by targeting more than one RSS feed so it helps to know how they are organized.The trick to ensuring that your press release is included in the RSS feed you want to target is with optimization. If you are targeting a particular MSA, for instance, you need to ensure that that name of that MSA is included often enough in your press release to ensure that it is picked up by that feed. For instance, to target the Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton, PA area then you should include that phrase in your press release three or four times. If your business is located in Easton, PA, instead of just listing Easton you could mention the Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton, PA area. Of course, when you list your business’s address then you’ll only include Easton, but by including the entire area name you know that you are targeting that RSS feed.The same principle applies to industry feeds. But you must be more subtle. A press release targeting Art Entertainment: Music Downloads IPOD MP3 will appear awkward so choose one phrase within that name and optimize your press release around that phrase. For instance, you could target the phrase “music downloads” and that will get you sufficient attention to be included in the RSS feed that you are targeting.PRWeb - Online Promotion Service: Get Listed in Google News & Yahoo!
