RSS is important to know about if you want to use blogs as part of your internet marketing scheme because RSS is a tool built into all blogs. Blog software automatically is configured to send feeds to anyone who signs up. That means whenever you post to your blog all the RSS subscribers will get that post.

Can you begin to see how powerful a marketing tool this can be? Every time you would post a new article, review or product sales suggestion, your list of RSS subscribers would automatically find this information on their computers. You don’t have to worry about spam filters or anything that might interfere with email delivery. RSS feeds don’t suffer from those problems, not yet anyway.

You could develop marketing plans targeting RSS subscribers. How easy would it be to do affiliate marketing with a solid list of RSS subscribers? You post a review of an affiliate product with your affiliate link and it would automatically be delivered directly to their computer.

In addition to that, your subscribers would have the opportunity to leave comments back on the blog if they are so inclined. That way you get instant feedback as to what you are doing wrong or right. It makes it easier and faster to adjust your marketing in reaction to that feedback.

Staying on top of technology is important to you as an internet marketer. New technology usually leads to new ways to market online. RSS is one of the newest ways to market to a target audience. Blogs are currently the easiest way to generate RSS feeds. By utilizing RSS and your blog you can create another stream of internet marketing to add to your overall online plan.
