A Note from the Author: The RSS Diary is Closed

rssdiary.marketingstudies.net was built to help marketers get the most from RSS. However, much has changed since the site was last updated in 2007 - and it's pretty fair to say that it's now completely outdated.

Since I've moved on to other interests in internet marketing years ago, the site is now officially closed, and only remains online as an archive of a part of internet marketing's past. This is how we used to see RSS between 2004 - 2007. We don't, anymore, but there's no harm in having a small part of our past available online.

With that, I'm also making the e-book that started all of this, Unleas the Marketing and Publishing Power of RSS, available for free download.

Best Practices for RSS Advertising

[19.05.2005 l Rok Hrastnik]

Bill Flitter of Pheedo has a great post about the best practices for RSS advertising, based on their 18 months of experience in the field and their hard metrics.

"1. Ads must fit the environment 2. Ads must be relevant and informative 3. Watch the content to ad ratio and unsubscribe rates 4. Tell, don't sell: RSS ads are about creating relationships with readers 5. Be patient: Unlike e-mail, RSS feeds don't demand to be read."
