My latest rant for sponsors with rss feeds ;)
Attention all sponsors offering rss blog feeds
A. If you do not offer an image, most will not use you.
B. If you do not offer an image of decent size, most will not use you.
C. If you do not offer decent descriptions in each post, most will not use you.
So what do us rss feed users look for? What makes us rss feed users pick one sponsor over another?
A. Large nice images.
B. Good descriptions using proper seo practices such as using Bolding for phrases you want to get searches on.
C. Regular updates, daily or at least twice weekly.
Now Im not bitching, and I really appreciate when sponsors go out of their way to offer more options to affiliates, and to make it easier for us to advertise for you, but there is nothing more annoying then signing up for a program due to them having rss feeds and to find a 80x80 image that is used for their feeds.
Most blog webmasters use 400x400 or even larger images in their own posts they make. So to put up a feed with a 80x80 image makes it purty obvious that, that post is not their own. So this post isnt so much a bitch, as it is an inside look into what I, and most other blog users Ive talked to, prefer when looking for new sponsors.
If you want more sign ups from webmasters using rss feeds try and implement those few tips. Thanks again for all you do for your affiliates.
