cnn, yahoo, ect all have trust rank factors - duplicate content and even spam doesn't effect or mater with them. You can't not possible google bomb them to give you an idea.
I'm not taking you the wrong way - I just don't think its fair that, often you, bash programs for starting out with basic feeds. (even though some clearly suck) Nobody has to start out perfect, no reason for people to do so.
I can tell you what most programs problems are with feeds. Two things.. We have hell keeping good writers (search how many times I have asked for writers) then the extra $10 per gallery. A $20 gallery is now $30, again cutting into the very thin profits galleries have anyway.
I sell the RSS Feed product for NATS, and I don’t hide anything with the clients. I tell them the truth, RSS feeds is another project, an employee. They can be half ass and they will always be half ass – or you put time and money into them, do them correctly, and people will use the hell out of them. But make no mistake, it is a lot of extra work, money, and time.
That is why I jumped back at you, this isn’t a normal job for the program, so its going to take many of us awhile to catch up to the few people doing it really good.
So what we really need is a full service writing company that can take on lots of programs... I personally could send probably 5-10 clients.
