5 Steps To Profiting From News Feeds

Looking at the news feeds, you might think it's one of the most complicated things to set up. It couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, it is very easy to create them once the system is properly set up.

You can break up your news feed system into a fast and low-cost one that you can do once or multiple times.

First, I will answer some of your questions about news sources. Then I will reveal the secret steps to setting up and making use of the News Feed.

Common Question #1: What is a news feed?

A news feed is an automatically updated list of the latest news on a particular topic. For example, the news on my website is about small business marketing.

Common Question #2: Why do I need one?

Aside from being a really cool thing for your website, news feeds are also great for driving traffic. Not only do they make your website more attractive to major web crawlers who see what's on your site, but they also inspire visitors to come back to your site for new news.

So the benefits are twofold:

new visitors and

Return visitors.

Keep in mind that there are a few things you need to do to see the benefits of news feeds.

1. Choose a topic that interests your audience. You choose Small Business Marketing News. For you, it could be breaking news about a difficult issue affecting your industry. The great part of this is that you don't have to provide answers, just create a forum where your target market can access information about an issue.

2. Find your news source. There are many services that provide news feed for various information. In my experience, it's best to locate news aggregators based on your industry alone.

3. Put the feed on your website. This is where I initially had a problem, but a programmer friend gave me a fairly cheap solution that allowed me to easily put the news on their website. The great thing about this is that once you set up your feed, you'll never have to touch it again.

4. Make your site profitable. Consider placing ads on the same page as your news feed. Regularly updated news is sure to make a hit with your audience and the more people who visit the site, it will generate passive earnings. (Say it five times faster!)

5. Drive traffic to your site. Over the years, I've found that the best way to drive traffic to a site is by writing and distributing articles. It's like an instant shot in the arm for high-quality traffic.

This is the secret formula for profiting from the news. Really, this is no secret. It's about knowing what resources to use to make your newsfeed work for you and your target audience.
