Blogging and RSS

Having a network marketing blog and RSS is a very important topic. This week I wanted to get back to some basics about blogging, why you should blog, and how it can help you with your network marketing business.

First let me answer the question about what RSS is. RSS stands for “Really Simple Syndication”. It is a very easy way for web sites and blogs to continually update its audience on. It makes it as easy as possible for you to help your blog audience informed about updates on your blog.

RSS produces something referred to as a “feed” in which viewers and fans of your site can subscribe to. In this way, they can stay up to date with the latest updates and coming and goings on your blog.

You can create an RSS feed on your blog by going to www.feedburner.com. Simply go there, create an account, and they will give you a certain html code for your site. All you have to do is copy and paste that code to your website, and BINGO, INSTANT RSS feed on your blog!!!

What does an RSS feed on your blog do for you and your network marketing business? It makes it as easy as possible for your fans and prospective downline, and actual downline members to stay updated with your tips and hints on your network marketing blog.

Its an excellent tool to help train your downline. Post a message to your downline on your blog, and INSTANT TRAINING FOR YOUR DOWNLINE! Now anyone can subscribe to your RSS feed, but there is nothing wrong with that. Freely giving of information returns tenfold eventually in my book.

Now, there are better places to place your RSS feed on your blog to make it easier for your readers to physically subscribe. Look below for the red circle on what a good place is to have your RSS button.
