7. Sell a few products on your web site instead of selling a large amount of products. To many choices can overwhelm your visitors and they won't buy.

Sites with RSS Feeds

There are many sites w/ RSS feeds. To know if a site has an RSS feed, look for an "RSS" link on site or a button/icon w/ RSS, ATOM or XML on it.

One cool use is to set RSS feed for a news search on a site. At Yahoo! News you can search on a topic in news and then subscribe to that feed using XML icon.

A lot of news/info/blog sites have RSS feeds that can help you keep up to date on info you want. The Armchair Geek is just such a site.

It's a collection of tech info that's updated regularly. You can see if/when it's been updated in your reader, see title of updates and a short summary and then decide if you want to load site or that post or nothing.

Bottom Line

RSS readers allow you to see latest updates to sites (and possibly be notified) at-a-glance without having to go to all your sites and load them. It's like peaking into many sites from a single place.
