_Should i put RSS feeds on my 3000 pages? - DNForum - Domain Sales, Domain Forum, Domain Appraisals, Domain Registrars

I am building a content site, with LOADS of pages (about 3000)

each page will contain an article, on a keyword to my niche.

so 1 article per page. 3000 articles = 3000 pages

Question - Should i include an RSS feed link (exporting my content) on Every single article page, so that means 3000 RSS links.

If readers subscribe to ONE of these feeds on ONE article page, this will just give readers a feed of ONE article... and not the rest of the 3000 won't it?

Does each RSS feed give them All the FRESH content on my site ?
or just the content on that Webpage they got the feed from (eg it will just give them the article on that webpage)

How can i structure my RSS feed so that my Readers get every NEW article uploaded on my site, or they get all 3000 articles.

Do your articles get updated? If not, there is no ponit of putting RSS.

New ones will be uploaded regularly ,

but as far as the PAGE which has the 400-500 word article, Those pages WONT get updated, but will stay with the article on then, and nothing else added

Other NEW pages will be created, with new articles on though

What else can i do, to use RSS to export my content ?

Any methods ?

Just a RSS on the index page then.

Sorry if this is a silly question but.....

If it is on the Index, Main home page then Will the subscribers get my Articles, everytime they are uploaded onto my site? even though they will be on different pages to the index page?

(articles will be on 3000 other pages)

No, setup a feed within each main category, specified by keyword or tag. People respond well to targeted information.

Simplified Example: "Food & Drink" Feed will cover --> Wine, steak, beer, and sushi articles.

You can then link to this feed from all pages within this category. Alternatively, you may wish to link to a page listing all feed categories from each page. Which one you should use will strongly depend on the site's structure.

Liquiteq is absolutely correct. In addition to what he said, you need to think of who is going to subscribe to your RSS feed. I don't think everyone is going to be interested in having all 3000 articles displayed on their site at one time or another.

If you are dead-set on having all 3000 articles on the same feed I think the best route would be to simply add 1 article to the feed per day. That way you are covered for a fresh feed for 3000 days, and that will make your subscribers much more comfortable with you due to the consistency - therefore increasing the amount of subscribers you will get.

As for fresh content, an RSS feed will not help you there.

Hope that helps!
