The difference between RSS Feed and RSS Feed in Joomla

This post is just to explain two components in Joomla, both are related to RSS Feeds.

Joomla News Feeds Component 

The First one goes under the component name “News Feeds” and it can be used to integrate RSS Feed content of Other websites into your pages.
So lets say you want the content of this Blog to appear in you Joomla website.., just as a service to your visitors.
In that case you would use the “News Feeds” Component.

I know, there are better ones out there, but you can find those on the extensions site of Joomla.org

Joomla Syndicate Component 

The second one ”Syndicate” was the topic of my previous post.
This kind of components, like the Joomla Syndicate and the third party components like the RSS Feed manager and DS-Syndicate are not meant to integrate content into your Joomla website.

No, these components are there to bring the content of Your website articles to people who use feed readers to stay in touch with what is happening on you site!!

So instead of pulling content in, you are sending content out!! into the big world of Feed readers and Search Engines…
Yes, search engines as well, as you have read already.
Feeds can be a nice assets to your Search Engine marketing and part of your Joomla SEO efforts.

Because RSS Feeds, and the information in it will travel…. and comes back with visitors to your website.

So, now you know the difference and do with RSS Feeds in Joomla.
Use the News feeds wisely to complete your content and use the Syndication components to bring your information into the Internet world…
