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much has changed since the site was last updated in 2007 - and it's pretty fair to say that it's now completely outdated.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

FeedBurner Bringing RSS Advertising to Europe

 
 

Although RSS adoption in Europe doesn't seem to be anywhere near the situation in the US, especially on the publishing and marketing side, we should soon be seeing the first RSS advertising initiatives.

The Feedburner and VNU Business Media Europe partnership, just announced yesterday, could be just one of the first such initiatives, finally opening the eyes of Europe to marketing with RSS.

VNU is a global business information company, and they aim to use FeedBurner as their partner in bringing RSS advertising solutions for their various media properties to their advertisers.

The first to take lead with the new VNU ad offering is Nokia, which started adding RSS ads to their internet marketing feeds.

Hopefully more European publishers and marketers will follow soon ...
