Dan Raine WordPress Silo and RSS Bomber Plugin What I Like About Them

About two months ago I purchased the beta version of WordPress Silo Plugin from Dan Raine and I’ve been using them on most of my sites now – yes, I’ve installed and activated them on both my 30DC style and Turbo products sites. I’ve also make use of the RSS Bomber Plugins that he gave as a bonus to the Silo. I find them really useful, especially to a lazy bum like me. Do you want to know what I like about them?

WordPress Silo Plugin

My sites use both free and paid themes and this blog itself is using elegant theme. So far I did not have any issue with both plugins breaking the themes.

It’s actually very simple to install this plugin and I don’t need to configure anything to use it.. well, except for activating it of course .

If you click on individual post on this site, you can see how it show both the previous post and also one category from the list of categories available on the site. The picture below shows what I meant.

Wordpress Silo Plugin In Action

On the left side, you can see it linking to the previous post and on the right side it link to one of my category theme. It automatically do that on each post and I don’t need to do anything to make those links. Try clicking other post if you don’t beleive what I’m saying.

Before using this plugin, I always forget to make any cross linking with other posts on my site and to tell you the truth, I’m very lazy to do it manually. So, to me this plugin is awesome. What more can I ask

The mindmap below illustrate the simple way how this plugin works based on what I saw on my sites.

Wordpress Silo Internal Linking Structure

It’s cool, isn’t it? In the diagram above, I show all post 4 linking to the other category on the site, that is just for illustration purposes.  I’m not sure if it always the last post that do that but I don’t care. What important is now I don’t have to consciously spend my time adding internal links on each post on my site – the plugin will do it for me. Of course I added my own interlinking once in a while (when I remember to do it ) but this thing save me a lot of time. This is especially useful if I schedule many post in advanced and forget to do the linking.

I’m sure there must be something else going with this plugin because I start seeing some of my other sites ranking for many more keywords than what I originally started with – and they are relevant keywords too!.

In case you want to know where you can get the WordPress Silo and RSS Bomber Plugins…

I don’t think Dan has released it to the public yet. Well, at least that is as far as I’m aware of. I bought it from inside the Immmediate Edge Membership under limited release back in February 2010. I’ll make an update once I know where the public can this plugins.

RSS Bomber Plugin

This little plugin has it’s own use too. Taking example of the blog post that I wrote recently. Let say if the permalink is like this:

http://suriati.com/434/john-delavera-farewell-package/

then when the post is published, RSS Bomber will automatically send a post notification containing the post feed to the email that I specified inside the plugin. The feed link will look like this:

http://suriati.com/434/john-delavera-farewell-package/feed/

I can then use that feed to submit to the many feed aggregator sites to get my sites ranked for the long tail keywords. Awesome indeed. At the moment, I have to manually submit the feed to these site as I don’t have a tool to automate it . It also partly because I like to schedule a few posts in advance on some of my sites and this feed will not be available until the post is published.

I was hoping that Dan can make an upgrade to this plugin to include a few top aggregator site inside the plugin and let the it auto submit the post feed to these sites. Three to five should be enough as it might slow down the sites if too many are added (I can always use software to blast the feed to many feeds aggregator sites but this is not the point). A feature to schedule and spaced out the feed posting to these aggregator sites and the ability to add keywords or note to it would be welcome too!  It’ll also be cool if it can deliver the notification to our email after each submission. Ahh..those feature will be awesome additions to RSS Bomber Can you imagine what this mean if the RSS Bomber can do this?

Thanks Dan and the team for making WordPress Silo and RSS Bomber Plugins available to us
