A now "deceased" website on RSS marketing and RSS publishing - a look at the history of internet marketing

Rok Hrastnik

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much has changed since the site was last updated in 2007 - and it's pretty fair to say that it's now completely outdated.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.

Marqui Wasn't Ready for 'RSS Conversations'

RSS Content Syndication Powers Online Conversations

As many examples already show, online conversations are not powered only by people actually blogging and communicating, but also through the power of RSS content syndication (automatic), which 'carries' the content throughout the internet and creates 'countless' new conversation starting points.

Blog Conversation Coordinators

Marqui, the company that pays bloggers to review and blog about their CMS, just hired a 'conversation coordinator'. Definitive proof that blog (and RSS) conversations are becoming increasingly important ... and increasingly time-consuming to track and react to as well.
