Pagerankpage’s The Blob

A RSS feed generates links to the providing party. Consequently these links will contribute to the Pagerank and to the ranking in general of the website of the providing party. It is evident that the provider of RSS feeds will benefit in ranking and pagerank.

In addition the provider of RSS feeds will benefit from visitors clicking on the link to read the whole article. 

Search engines send out what are called spiders, crawlers or robots to visit your site and gather web pages. Happily most spiders are detectible. The robots leave traces behind in your access logs, just as an ordinary visitor does. If you know what to look for, you can tell when a spider has come to call. That can save you worrying that you haven’t been visited. You can tell exactly what a robot has recorded or failed to record. You can also spot robots that may be making a large number of requests, which can affect your page impression statistics or even burden your server.

Refreshing and renewing content in your website is appreciated by visitors and by search engines. Search engines index your website more frequently if content is refreshed on a continuously basis. This contributes to your positions and ranking in search engines. With A CMS refreshing and renewal of contant is quite easy. More sophisticated CMS allow you to hide and display pages and or content on a timebased basis and can reorganise given content in different ways on different pages.

Generally a CMS is build with the use of databases and programmed scripts. Subject to the technology used and the structure of how the CMS is developed a CMS generated website could be very unfriendly for the spiders of search engines. with A poor developed CMS it is likely that not all pages will be ‘read’or indexed by search engines or that certain content on a page will be ‘read’. This is a missed opportunity as you want that both people and search engines have access to all information provided on a website. Before choosing a CMS please inform about the search engine performance and the possibility to optimise for search engines.

A search engine program consists of a search engine spider (to fetch as many webpages as possible), a search engine indexer, (to \’read\’ these webpages and creates an index based on the words contained in each webpage) and a propietary search engine algorithm (to create its indices and ranking such that, ideally, only meaningful results are returned for each search query. Most users on the internet use the search engines Google or Yahoo.
