Syndicating A Blog With RSS Feed Directories?

[rtsurvivor]

I've been reading a lot about syndicating a blog by using the RSS feed from my site and submitting it to 20 or 30 top RSS directories.

For instance I have a blog on Google's Blogspot that creates a valid RSS feed that can be submitted to a lot of the RSS directories.

The way I understand it is that someone can then go to an RSS directory, like "RSSMountain" for example, and subscribe to a wide variety of targeted feeds.

This whole process is supposed to create back-links to a blog that is listed in these directroies. There are a number of RSS submitting program out there that claim they submit your RS feed to a large number of these directories.

My question is this; has anyone had any experience with theses type of submitting programs?

I do this manually. It only takes 2 minutes per directory and you only have to do it once as the feed is updated everytime you post to your blog.

Thanks for the info. Do you get the massive amounts of back links that the software submitting peddlers are claiming?

There is one that wants $20 to $30 p/month. That seems a bit steep to me.

Thanks again

Unless there is some other service they provide - like access to a blog posting network, then I'd say they're rip-off merchants

do it manually, or get a free desktop RSS submission program from one of the download sites - e.g. RSS Announcer, AKA Allscoop RSS Submit Pro

the above program will both auto submit and manually submit

these RSS submissions do work - but they're not a magic bullet
