Integration with vBulletin - EPC RSS Monetize ?vBulletin RSS Feeds? Integration to Searchfeed

"EPC RSS Monetize ?vBulletin RSS Feeds? Integration to Searchfeed"

Ok if you use the RSS Poster within your forums and always wondered how you can benefit off this. After almost a year of playing around using Searchfeed?s service we have found this be pretty much another way of syndicating feeds that pay you per click to be very much a way to monetize your ?Advertisement? forums area if you run a free board (about 85%+/- do). Meaning, why not create an Advertisement forums, broaden your mind, and let it post automatically daily? Don?t overdue it, just let the forums work for you?

So yes signing up with Searchfeed's services as a publisher is free to do, and getting an account, you?ll be given an account ID and a trackID, which you will simply enter into the config.xml file by supplying this information.

Concept behind it all:

• Having some preset users to post automatically, whether you are using our EPC Massive User Creator :: Using PHP and .NET (ALL SOURCES) hack, or having another way of creating users that are just there as ?Posters? automatically.
• Gathering up Feeds, now using Search Feed?s service, simply by supplying just keywords in a fashion of i.e. online+real+estate in a list as we have supplied you inside a text file that the script will read from.
• Then using our other hack EPC Autoposter for vBulletin. You will have a all-in-one RSS posting monetize machine (Just sounded sorta cool to add ), so when someone sees this post and it being in the advertisement area of your forums?

So all in all the idea is to monetize and cash-in on your resources that are there for you, we are just simply going to create these tools for a reason, in hopes to help ?OTHERS.? So the overall jist of it is that you have a member on your forums posting automatically of Search Feed?s feeds to your advertisement area? If you don?t understand this concept, then we suggest you move onto another hack or ask some questions to fully get an idea on this?


Basically yes this is to monetize your forums in another fashion which isn?t going to interfere with Google AdSense or any other inline sort of advertisement terms of services. If you know of Search Feed?s services, then you are well aware of their offerings.

Install:

• Enter your accountID and trackID into the config.xml that?s supplied to you.
• Enter in the keywords that you are wanting to syndicate to your forums, it?s totally up to you on this. Do you research and find which ones pay more and you can upload the script to multiple directories to keep everything very well organized as such:
  • http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/feeds/online-dating/
  • http://www.yourdomain.com/forums/fee...ne-webhosting/
  • And etc?

Once you have these setup, you can then put the keywords into each keywords text file, if you are wanting to get free keywords feel free to visit here: https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal Google is pretty nice to give everyone this nice little tool to use? Now remember you have to keep in the format inside the text files keyword+name using the plus (+) sign where there are spaces? Simple enough so far huh?

• Now upload all of these files to your web directory as we stated.
• Point your URL to the folder and you should see the feeds listed there? Now do remember one thing, RSS feeds with this service should give you new content because Search Feed?s services is an advertiser service like someone.

So now you can make your own feeds using Search Feed?s RSS function to monetize more of your forums area by simply syndicating to your Advertisement forums (This is all a recommendation area, because we use this area so it doesn?t look like ?JUNK? in the main forums area.)

See the attached inside the zip will be:

• index.php
• config.xml
• keywords.txt (We filled up for you with the niche online dating, just to show you the format, or you can simply fill it in with various keywords to post variously. (UP TO YOU))

This hack works and surely can?t see why it wouldn?t work for you unless you modified the index.php file. Because there is no need to unless you know what you are doing there!

Also, if there is another service out there that offers you the ability to syndicate feeds to blogs, forums and etc? You may use this with this script but will require modifications to the script to accommodate their structure; we just simply supplied a script that?ll help syndicate feeds

Search Feed?s services may not produce feeds in certain keywords, so don?t come here to the forums posting about how they will produce keywords for this script, because it?s their service and you have to figure out for yourself what keywords to use and research yourself. Because this is a very generic hack to syndicated Text File feed format as RDF from Search Feed to your forums. Remember it?s about your research of the keywords, not for us to do. We are simply supplying you with a way to syndicating this since we haven?t seen a hack on vBulletin.org for this yet!

I am still confused by this mod. One of my sites has had rss feeds running for years. Many, many of them. When ever I read anything related to rss I am always interested....

Does anyone have a working version of this? PM me a link if you don't wish to post it...

Thanks--- Making money from posting rss feeds???? Huh?????

[iogames]

It seems like the so-called Company disappeared... Did someone make money from this?

[Hornstar]

Well http://www.searchfeed.com is still up and running (gave you that link, so you do not need to click on his affiliate link) and so is blogtoranks site, however, it looks like all support and updates are no longer occurring. Looks like he was in it for the quick buck only.
