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

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much has changed since the site was last updated in 2007 - and it's pretty fair to say that it's now completely outdated.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

Teleseminar with Annie Jennings: Thanks to the RSS Industry

 
 

We just finished the teleseminar with Annie Jennings, and it was really wonderful. It was fun being on the other side of the mike for once:)

Now, Annie did give me a great introduction, but I do need to add that I'm just one of the people that are trying to best teach others how to take best advantage of this channel, and just one of the people considering its various marketing implications.

But the real pioneers are the people that developed RSS more than a decade ago, and watched it grow since 2003/2004 to what it has become today.

And the people that developed the wonderful RSS solutions and services that are making the lives of RSS end-users and RSS marketers and publishers easier every day. While I am working with some RSS developers, these people are the real pioneers and the real back-bone of RSS.

And to Chris Pirillo, who was one of the first marketers in the world to recognize the marketing power of RSS.

And then, more special thanks go to all the wonderful people that allowed me to interview them for "Unleash the Marketing and Publishing Power of RSS". Without them, this e-book would not have been possible.

I thank all of you for bringing RSS so far.
