RSS Feeds, Newsletters of the Future!
Author: TYPELiFE28 Apr
Seriously, why does anyone offer a newsletter on their website anymore? Or even worse, why is your whole website created around the newsletter!? Shouldn’t you be trying to sell a product or a service, or be providing some sort of value?
When I see people offer subscriptions to both RSS Feeds and a separate newsletter, I want to cry!
RSS Feeds are the new Newsletter!
People opt in, get their updates via e-mail when you choose. RSS Feed = Newsletter.
It’s much easier to manage, and you can still provide all the juicy information, incentives, and whatever whatnot you choose to provide to your subscribers.

Yea, I can see why a newsletter is benifical in somecases. So, a vaction newsletter, or a newsletter to a team who is on the good and does not have laptops. Also, newsletters allow readers to read using a moble web device. But this cases are very few, RSS will cover most people’s needs. Nice post, keep up the work.
Maybe some people enjoy creating those Newsletters too. And if no one would read them, would that mean a person worked for nothing?
Much easier to keep up with RSS cos you don’t in fact do anything, it does it for you.
But some people like writing their newsletters, i guess just let them do it! All the same to me.
I love keeping a newsletter. I am able to target people who want my jewelry and offer them special rewards and discounts that I don’t necessarily want made open and public to everyone.
Plus, I’m still not so sure how this RSS thing works.
I admit it. I’m kind of a techy dummy.
