As many of you know, I am a big fan of Blog Engage and recommend it to everyone that is looking to get more traffic and find more information about blogging, social media, SEO. Even if your blog doesn’t write about these topics, you can still submit your articles to Blog Engage. You can find all sorts of blogs on there and every day more people are joining. So, if your niche is not really used on Blog Engage tell your followers about, get them to join, and keep on submitting your articles to Blog Engage and you will see more traffic come in.
Recently Brian of Blog Engage started a new premium service that is available to everyone. This premium service, is RSS Syndication to Blog Engage, Blog Serp (sister site) and Top Blog. For as little as $1.99 a month you could have your articles automatically submitted to a Google Page Rank 5 site and two other sites that are on their way to high page rank.
Why RSS Syndication
As a blogger and SEO consultant, I am always looking for new ways to get backlinks. One of the easies ways to get backlinks is to join social bookmarking communities and engage with other users of the community. When a user submits their articles to a social bookmarking site, those articles get exposure that they normally wouldn’t get it if they were using standard on-page SEO tactics. This exposure not only helps bring more traffic to your site, it can also give you DoFollow backlinks to your site.
If you are already using this technique to get more traffic and backlinks to your site and you are like me, you probably have more than one bookmarking site you are using to submit articles to. Because I submit my articles to so many different sites, I spend a lot of time marketing my articles, so I am constantly look for ways to save time on any part of the marketing process that I can.
So far one of the easiest ways to save time is through automation of certain parts of the marketing process. When Brian announced that Blog Engage was offering this service, I started looking more into this feature and waiting to see how well it works. After reading several reviews and seeing the results for myself, I decided that this feature was worth the money. If you are writing at least one article a day and submitting your articles to other bookmarking sites, this new service will save you time. Although I am not currently using this service, I will be very shortly.

Sounds like a sweet deal and definitely a time saver. I use blog engage sometimes and sometimes just don’t have the time to post my articles, so the syndication is definitely a great idea. I’ve heard of it before but did not pay too much attention with it. Will take it for a test drive using you aff link 🙂 Thanks (done)
Thanks buddy. 🙂 Hope it works out for you. I see the benefit of using this service and it should help almost anyone who wants to save a little time when marketing their articles.
I too recently signed up for the Premium syndication and cannot deny its power to draw in new readers plus you find alot of cool sites to visit yourself which you probably would not have found otherwise.
Hey James,
Thanks for explaining what the premium RSS syndication is. I’ve seen it on BE a few times, but never bothered to take a look. Sounds like it might be worth it, going to go check out more details 🙂
Hi James, thanks so much for help me build awareness about our RSS Service. We now have 57 customers can you imagine that? To date I’ve only had 4 canceled accounts.
I continue to build on our presence in the blogosphere by adding other sites content is syndicated to and our customers are loving it.
Right now the RSS Service syndicates content to blogengage, blogserp, topblogged, bloggerink and bloggertag.
I will continue building this list as we get more customers and I can justify the costs. Also I know you got a sale with affiliate lights and I hope that continues to grow for you.
