FeedForAll: Syndicate static webpages with this RSS program
SoftwareI have a client that is very successful within their online retail niche. They do just about everything right as far as SEM is concerned. They started their site years ago, before such a thing as CMS’es so they hand code each and every page. Tedious but Google really, really, loves’em. When I encounter a client that seems to be ranking well for everything, I have to be very creative to find alternative means of online exposure. For a while now I’ve been trying to figure out how to integrate an old, static website with an RSS feed. Not so much a blog but something simple that would be a little more manual. Today it seems like any time I think of problem like this, someone has already made a widget or software app to solve it. I came across a nifty little program the other day that lets you create an RSS feed for anything! There’s a little setup that’s involved (RSS link rel in the header) but that’s about it. In the program, you have to create your feed and then enter the consecutive ‘titles’ which essentially would be you blog posts. You can save you feed and continually add to it just as you would a normal blog. This is especially good if your client has loads of content (articles or press releases) that have just been published to the site without ever being syndicated.
