      Hello all.

       

      I have a client that runs several Wordpress blogs and would like to feature the headlines on his BC site. I would like to place the feeds into content holders so the content would be dynamic and would update automatically. Is there any way that I can pull the RSS feeds from third parties into content holders?

       

      Best Regards

      David

          Hi David, you would have to do this with Javascript, There are many guides on the web about pulling RSS feeds using things like jQuery out there.

           

          AS a note though, if the goal here is to have content on the site for SEO - Since this is javascript it wont have any benefit. Even if it was rendered content on the site it would be counted as duplicate content.

          Also, if they are running several wordrpess blog sites for SEO purposes for a primary, that concept was stopped from having an effect quite a while ago, Google does not consider this a good practise.

           

          Hope this information helps.
