Four ways in which RSS wins over Emails

Though emails will never be completely redundant from our lives in times to come, but a better alternative to them has already evolved with the name of RSS. It helps you syndicate, distribute or display latest news summaries from other web sites on your web site or read them on those sites that collect these feeds.

1.You are your own boss as you get what you want

You like reading fashion news, so, you would probably subscribe to a fashion magazine and not a general magazine that provides you information about every walk of life, including fashion. You want to read only that thing which interests you. RSS will give you only the information that you want. The moment you instruct the feed reader to stop collecting feeds of a site, it will stop.

2. No fear of Spamming

Being a web page, RSS cannot be blocked unlike emails. The result is an uncluttered, Spam free, 'of your choice' content that doesn't irritate, rather gets read by you. You can have more people reading your content as they will be free from all fear of spamming.

3. Say goodbye to overloaded email servers

If you have to send a message or newsletter to a big list of subscribers, your mail server will be completely clogged and will take ages to send the content. But, RSS downloading is the same as that of a web page. It will deliver the page as and when requested, not all at once.

4. An automated filtering of content

Imagine the volume and intensity of content that seems to be ever growing till eternity. RSS will be the ultimate answer to active,real-time, automated filtering of this growing content. In other words, you can make huge advertising revenue by giving readers what they want, on their conditions, and according to their schedules.
