Quick question… do you publish ‘Articles’ on a regular basis?
I’m talking like on a weekly or bi-weekly basis.
If so, then your in for a real treat.
If you haven’t heard, RSS(Real Simple Syndication) is taking the Internet by storm because of its many Benefits, especially for someone(you) who provides fresh ‘Quality’ content on a regular basis.
Not only does RSS GUARANTEE 100% delivery to whoever opt’s in to your feed(s), it can also ‘Syndicate’ your content across the Internet in an instant to thousands of websites and portals delivering an avalanche of FREE targeted traffic to your website(s) at NO Cost to you what so ever.
WoW! Was that a mouthful or what? It gets better, so hold on.
We all know that without Traffic to our website(s) we have no business.
We also know that the Internet is starving for fresh content on a Daily basis to feed its evergrowing appetite for information.
The upside to this IS if your someone(you) who publishes articles as one of your means of online promotion for your website(s) then your in for a real ride.
As you well know Article Directories are one of the primary places article publishers(like yourself) go to submit their articles.
Why?
Simply because this is where website owners go to find fresh related content to publish in their newsletters or on their websites on a daily to weekly basis to feed their audiences need for Information.
And with time always being a major factor, adding fresh related content can become quite a chore for a website owner who is already hard pressed for time as it is on a daily basis while trying to keep up with all the other daily duties a online business requires.
So with that being said, how does RSS and Article Directories fit into the mix and how can You benefit from this technology by providing and submitting fresh ‘Quality’ content on a weekly basis to Article Directories that offer RSS Syndication?
The answers simple.
The Article Directories(at least most of them) NOW have RSS Feed databases available under any category your article falls under for those website owners who looking for RSS feeds and have websites that are RSS ready.
Whats this mean for you?
This means everytime you submit your new article to the Article Directories that offer RSS Syndication and they approve your article to the particular category you request upon submission and lets say for example 1000 websites have that RSS Feed category plugged into their RSS Feed list, guess what?
The next time that RSS feed updates(usually within 24 hours) guess whose article is going to show up on all those 1000 websites INSTANTLY?
That’s right… Yours!
Whats this mean for you? Simple… more Traffic and more $$Profits$$!
Are you starting to see the HUGE benefits to RSS and Article Directories adopting this new technology?
Do you see the benefits this will give the person(you) publishing articles to these directories on a regular basis?
I reckon you do because I know I do.
RSS Syndication is truly becoming the cornerstone of how content is delivered and/or syndicated online and it has only begun.
Once everybody else Jumps-On the RSS band wagon after seeing the right benefits of RSS Syndication and how it can deliver their content to their target audience without any worry of being redirected into the trash can like email, You the publisher will benefit for years to come receiving FREE targeted traffic, collecting more leads and making more sales without having to do anything But provide fresh ‘Quality’ content to these Article Directories on a regular basis.
So… the only thing you have to do now is find those Article Directories that offer RSS Syndication and start submitting your articles to them.
If you don’t write and publish your own articles maybe you should consider getting started and/or hire a Ghost Writer to write them for you.
Below I have listed a few resources for you that offer RSS Syndication for you to get started with. I would of listed more but there’s just to many.

Dynamics GP Integration Partner Chicago, San Diego News: eConnect programming
Sunday, February 28th, 2010Microsoft Dynamics GP ERP, formerly known as Fantastic Plains Dynamics and eEnterprise has excellent selection of custom programming and integration tools, plus from the SQL Server itself you could try Stored Procedures integration. Consider Dynamics GP Integration Manager, where you can simply setup integration without programming or even add some integration logic alteration via VBA scripts in Before Integration, Before Document Commit and other events. If your integration requires very deep interaction with Fantastic Plains tables and custom tables, you can try Dynamics GP Dexterity programming (where you make custom tables and handle integration on both standard and custom ones) or eConnect Microsoft Visual Studio C# or VB.Net programming. This publication is not intended as eConnect eCommerce programming guide, we want to give you the orientation in what to expect from eConnect, and we assume that you as software developer will be able to include eConnect libraries to your MS VS project and work with eConnect sample codes on your own:
1. Work Transactions and Master Records. eConnect allows you to make so-called work transactions, place them into the batch: Sales Order Processing Order or Invoice (this is especially valuable in ecommerce website programming), Buy Order, GL transaction, etc. and if required make or alter existing master records: customer, vendor, GL account, Payroll Employee, Address
2. eConnect versus SQL Stored Procedures. If you reckon that there is no need to deploy eConnect and instead code your own custom SQL Stored Procedures, please note, that you in essence will be recoding GP business logic, which is already coded by Microsoft Dynamics GP programmers in Microsoft – in our opinion it is waste of time, unnecessary learning curve and potential source of numerous bugs and even data integrity threat. And again in our opinion Stored Procedures should be coded only when your integration project is very simple – and even here, please look at Fantastic Plains Integration Manager first
3. eConnect versus Integration Manager. The tendency is the following – IM is in process of being rewritten with eConnect connectors, and walking away from legacy OLE Server based approach. This fact should mean for you that IM is as quick as custom eConnect application. eConnect application, but might be triggered in real time, where IM should be either called by IM operator or scheduled with Windows scheduler or special Windows Macro based application
4. Automatic Batch Posting in ecommerce. This is something that eConnect doesn’t have, you should deploy Dynamics GP ISV add-on, Alba Spectrum Posting Server, which will allows you to place batches in Autopost queue and then posting process will be launched by Posting Server GP workstation
5. If you feel that you need Dynamics GP consultant help, please call your Fantastic Plains Guru, or if you do not have one, consider calling to Fantastic Plains Resellers in your area or who are familiar with your industry. Feel free to call us: 1-866-528-0577, help@albaspectrum.com
Great Plains Reseller News: Edi Solutions for Dynamics Gp
Sunday, February 14th, 2010Microsoft Dynamics GP has various EDI (Electronic Document Interchange) add-ons and third party modules, where you can map your EDI code to either expose GP documents, such as Vendor Buy Orders to EDI complaint vendors or import Sales Orders or Invoices from EDI channel to your SOP module, as two well loved examples. In certain cases purchasing add-on may not be feasible due to the simplicity of your requirements or paradoxically – their complexity, where you want to control EDI mapping in-house or with trusted Fantastic Plains Dynamics consultant. This publication is targeted to EDI technical people, and as such may look too programmer oriented, but we tried to make it readable for technology savvy executive. Let’s review briefly both scenarios: export and import:
1. Exporting EDI compliant text code. Typically EDI code has fixed length format with Header, Lines, and various Trailers. Simple approach to produce this fixed length formatted text file is to save SQL select statement, where you unionize the parts and precisely format each field. If you are exporting Buy Orders, then likely you are dealing with Buy Order Processing module tables: POP10100, POP10110. Then what you need to do is to mark your exported Buy Orders in custom table as exported. Feel free to make this export status table in GP company database.
2. Importing EDI file to GP. Here you need to consider pushing documents to Fantastic Plains via eConnect programming, assuming that automatic batch posting is not required. If Autoposting is required, we recommend you to deploy Alba Spectrum Posting Server or Autopost. You open incoming EDI text file with OLEDB text driver. Then the options are multiple – our favorite is to read text file into temporary table. In this case you will have typical field names: F1, F2, F3 – to make your grouping, sorting and having clauses elegant. Another well loved alternative is to establish SQL linked server to your text file, but this construction might be too powerful and not really required on that level
3. ODBC text file driver limitations. ODBC supports the subset of standard SQL language only and you will see multiple limitations: case, text functions and other standard SQL constructions are not supported by ODBC SQL
4. EDI and Fantastic Plains Dexterity. If you need seamless integration with GP user interface, GP Dexterity might be the tool of choice. Dex allows you to call either Dex SQL compliant cursors, or call directly SQL statements or stored procedures to do the job, already described in the paragraphs above

Automatically Tweet Your News or Blog
Monday, February 8th, 2010Twitter is a fantastic tool. But it doesn’t replace blogging – although it can suppliment it. There is a fantastic service out there called TwitterFeed that will take any RSS feed and send new posts to your Twitter account automatically. That is fantastic because people who are interested in your Tweets are probably also interested in your blog and this way you can promote your blog with no extra effort. And don’t forget you can use RSS feeds to automatically send new posts from your news or blog to other blogs, Facebook, etc.
What is Twitter?
Twitter is basically a micro blog. So instead of writing a long, thought out post, you can keep it small and sweet. In fact, you have to, as each “tweet” is only allowed 140 characters. You can tweet text, links and even photos and you can do it from your computer and even from your cell phone.
So why tweet? Excellent question. It’s a fantastic way to let friends and family know what you’re up to and share the small things that happen in your day. Often people use it for sharing a random amusing thought or a fantastic website link or a photo of their kids. Professionally it’s a fantastic way to find other people with similar interests and learn from them and share things you’ve found to be helpful too. Often people use Twitter for posting questions to friends and colleagues as well.
Recently Twitter added the ability to search tweets. This is huge. Now you can see trends of what people are talking about right this second, unlike searching on Google and finding pages that were indexed days or even weeks ago. It’s like a giant, world-wide chat room. For example, your wife may be a huge American Idol Fan (This is all hypothetical, of course). You could search on the term “Idol” and find what a bazillion other people are talking about right that second regarding American Idol. And it’s usually pretty amusing.Will Twitter replace Google….I doubt it, but it does have it’s place for searching for things that are very time sensitive, like news.
Put RSS News Feeds to Work for You
Sunday, February 7th, 2010One of the most misunderstood files, but yet one of the most powerful on the Web, is the RSS feed sometimes known as the RSS news feed, XML feed or web feed. One form of this special XML file is the podcast, but yet many casual and even hi-tech surfers still do not know that they are using this exciting technology invisibly every day to read news and follow blog sites.
RSS, standing for Really Simple Syndication, is not new technology. The technology and implementation was made in 1999 by Netscape. RSS is an vital technology and one that you are most likely using to get news, information updates, and to follow blogs that you like from a portal page invisibly. RSS files are made in XML or Extensible Markup Language. XML is another programming language used widely on the Web, like HTML, but one that cannot be read in its raw form by a browser. Because it operates invisibly, RSS has not been recognized by mainstream web surfers as the powerhouse that it is, but, that doesn’t mean that developers aren’t using RSS to serve you the content and information that you want most!
Why is This Misunderstood File So Powerful?
RSS, XML feeds or RSS news feeds, as they are commonly known, make the dynamic backbone behind many of the sites that many casual web surfers use every day without even knowing that they are using this exciting technology. If you visit a personalized home page, add content to it, or even subscribe to blog with one click buttons, most likely, you are using the power of RSS news feeds already. Blogs routinely and automatically make these RSS news feeds (sometimes in a format known as Atom) and these special files allow others to auto subscribe to your content and view snippets of your information in real-time from a variety of portal news aggregator websites like My Yahoo, iGoogle, My Live, My AOL, and others.
Podcasts are Another Flavor of the RSS News Feed
Podcasts or RSS news feeds which contain audio file enclosures are just another flavor of this powerful XML file format. It is fascinating to note that as of late 2007, 13% of polled Web users had heard of and were routinely downloading and playing podcasts, but fewer than 7% of the polled Web users stated that they were using RSS news feeds on a regular basis. Really, the figure of users utilizing RSS feeds is probably much greater than 7%, but people are simply not aware that this hidden application is most likely supplying the content and information that they like to review on a daily basis.
How Can You Use RSS News Feeds Yourself?
Although it is harder for non-web designers to make and use RSS due to the technology and skill needed for implementation, most blog platforms make these special files for you automatically without your having to lift a finger. Installing auto subscribe buttons known as chicklets on your blog sidebar allows others to subscribe to your blog using your RSS news feed with one click. If you use Feedburner, they make it simple for you to allow for one click blog reader subscription by having you simply enter in your blog address and then providing a snippet of code to install on your web page. You may even be able to have Feedburner auto install a widget in your Blogspot template, without any code knowledge on your part, to help you get into the RSS syndication game quick.
When a blog reader clicks the special subscription chicklets that you have made with Feedburner’s help, readers can get your blog posts in real time; every time you update your blog, directly in their chosen RSS feed reader like My Yahoo, My Live, etc. There, their page content is automatically updated with your groundbreaking new blog content. Your blog subscriber can now choose to read your blog post there, on their news portal, or they can click in to read the full post from the additionally dynamically supplied link to your blog site. That’s the real power of RSS!
How Can You Get Into Podcasting Quick?
If you are using our teleconferencing tools, you can easily make an RSS news feed or podcast of your teleconference. When you have recording enabled for your teleconferences, you are automatically making a MP3 file of your call that is stored on the AccuConference website. You can easily download this sound file, in MP3 format, to your own computer and send it to your webmaster for podcasting implementation.
Your webmaster can either just make a list of links on a page of the MP3 files and when clicked will open the browser’s integrated music player. Or, your webmaster can get fancy and can make a RSS news feed to allow podcatchers (software end-users utilize to manage their podcast subscriptions and be told of your new audio files) to auto-sense when a new audio file has been added and to automatically download the content as well as synch it to their computer or media player. There are many services on the Web that help webmasters make these special RSS podcast subscription feeds. An simple one to use is FeedHoster. Some web hosts are now even making online applications to help with the creation of podcast syndication feeds. Even Feedburner has gotten into the game and provides simple podcast syndication tools.
It’s Time to Engage Your Viewers!
As you update your website or blog with new and interactive technology consider implementing RSS to allow your viewers more choice in how they receive your content. RSS is just one of the powerful new ways that we are getting our personalized content on the Web today and one that you can easily implement without a lot of hassle on your blog, website, and social media site. It’s time to place the power of RSS to work for you!
Great Plains Reseller News: Autoposting Server for Dynamics Gp
Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010Microsoft Dynamics GP implementation in ecommerce or EDI (Electronic Document Interchange) environments often requires documents creation in Dynamics GP from external applications, such as e-commerce web site. We recommend you to make a research in the SDK and integrating tool, named eConnect. eConnect makes, deletes and updates GP master records: customer, vendor, employee, GL account, address for customer or vendor to name few examples. Also eConnect makes so-called work documents: Sales Order Processing Invoice, Sales Order, Buy Order, GL transaction, Payroll Payment and Check, etc. Please, note here, that these documents have work status, they are not posted and awaiting for your review and posting on the batch level. It is often the requirements to post Fantastic Plains batch automatically from ecommerce or EDI integration application – and here you will get the limitation of eConnect – it doesn’t have batch posting functionality and it probably should not due to GP architecture. In order to post batches in GP you will need add-on GP Autopost
1. Autopost Technology. It deploys Microsoft Fantastic Plains Dexterity internal procedures to do posting, but it open the way to post batches naturally through custom Dexterity programming. Autoposting Server is extremely reliable and it is immune to GP version upgrade, as Dex code, related to batch posting is virtually unchanged
2. EDI and other posting needs. Due to the fact, that Fantastic Plains Posting Server uses Dex procedures, it can post the batch of multiple origins, including some add-ons modules batches. This is why Autopost is well loved in EDI scenarios
3. GP Autopost Support USA Nationwide and Internationally. This product is targeted to ecommerce programmers and developers, and doesn’t require our technicians visit onsite, and we are comfortable to sell and support it nationwide and internationally, where Fantastic Plains is localized: UK, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Middle East, India, Pakistan, South East Asia, Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Mexico, Caribbean, South America
4. GP customization and programming services. Fantastic Plains Dexterity Software Development Factory is in your disposition
Harness The Power Of RSS News Feeds For Your Marketing Strategies
Friday, January 29th, 2010RSS news feeds are a fantastic form of communication in the viral marketing game, and when properly managed, these feeds can bring in significant internet traffic. The meaning of RSS is really not very clear. RSS may stand for Really Simple Syndication while others believe its Rich Site Summary or Rich Syndication Standard. The creator of RSS directory is considered to be Netscape. It was released in March 1999 and is used to syndicate news or information and is usually associated with blogs because blogs use an RSS news feed to distribute their content. These RSS feeds are found in RSS directories where content is updated on a 24/7 basis.
The fantastic thing about RSS directories is that they are categorized, making it simpler to find information.
How can you take advantage of RSS news feeds?
You can use RSS news feeds as an online marketing and search engine optimization tool. Just as optimizing a web page will increase exposure, so will a properly optimized RSS news feed. Follow a few simple tips to help improve your RSS feed exposure.
If you publish your own content or articles you can submit to article directories which now also are starting to incorporate RSS as well. People are on the internet for Information and websites contain this information. Website owners need new and updated information on a daily basis to feed their readers needs.
The channel title is one of the most vital aspects of your RSS news feed. It should be keyword rich and related to the general theme of the RSS feed. The channel title is vital because it is a first glimpse at the RSS feed, and what will capture the attention of the casual internet surfer. Also many of the RSS directories and search engines use the information in the RSS feed’s channel title to index the feed so it is vital that the information be relevant to the contents in the feed.
The channel description expands on the theme of the RSS news feed and gives an overview as to its content. The channel description should contain related keywords and phrases, but just like the channel title, it should be written to capture the attention of the reader.
The RSS feed item title is really nothing more than a headline and is similar to a web page title, this is your opportunity to grab the interest of your reader. The use of pertinent keywords and keyword phrases in the item title will help those searching for specific content.
RSS news feeds should be search engine optimized , using the same techniques as those used on a web site, Grammar and proper punctuation are vital and will say a lot about the quality of your content.
Remove ancient items in an RSS feed and archive contents to make sure that feeds load quickly in RSS readers. If you are using a third party hosting, feeds that are too large will be truncated or not show at all.
Add an image to your RSS news feed to make it visually appealing in an RSS reader. Most RSS readers will show the image above the contents, and this is a fantastic way to present a brand logo and establish recognition. Be sure to include the full URL to the image to avoid a broken link.
There is right power in the marketing ability of RSS news feeds and with just a small knowledge; you too can harness this fantastic new marketing tool!
