Let’s imagine for a minute the local department store you shop in. What would you think if the displays never changed? Every time you entered you saw the same signs advertising the same products.

Dan’s website had been around for a while - several years in fact. Unfortunately, though he tediously watched for visitors, the website was trickling in a minuscule amount of sales. One day, a friend told Dan that his website was cool, but...er...you might say a little dusty. It just needed freshened up a bit. Hey, what are friends for? Dan, began to research and decided to try blogging and using RSS feeds. He got excited and began including interactive polls, articles, sales updates, and even slipped in a few photos. Within a few days his site was indexed on Yahoo! and his sales were beginning to flow steadily. Within a month he was dancing gleefully with his latest bank statement in hand - much to the amusement of his adolescent children!

RSS feeds are more convenient and versatile than you might think at first glance. There are a variety of ways to incorporate feeds into your website.
