A fresh start
To those that have been following the RSS/Syndication management space, there were a handful of players. Well, there is one less now. Syndicate IQ has ceased operations. We gave it a hard, good run but in the end it was not to be. I can count at least ten reasons why but does not really matter in the end. We and especially myself (Stuart Watson, Founder of Syndicate IQ) learned more about launching a company (help start Performics), raising money, building awareness, education, selling/marketing, and converting a vision into reality. The market is still very, very young and plenty of opportunities exist.
Some of them supporting publishers (yes, there is still plenty of room) who are creating text, audio, and video content. Others will support marketers/e-commerce companies and others will directly support consumers with RSS/syndication related services. Syndication Gumption continues the education, analysis/opinion, resources, and news aspects of Syndicate IQ. It is important to provide syndicators (those evaluating RSS/Syndication management companies), analyst, web 2.0 bloggers, a “common sense” voice about the opportunities being realized utilizing this new Internet plumbing called RSS. I will work to peal back the layers of marketing/sales information of various vendors to help highlight and set straight the facts about a service, product, or feature.
Topics coming soon:
- Three Types of RSS URLs: s, i, & p
- Scaling and the Three Types of RSS URLs
- RSS Reach = Web Reach?
- RSS Ads: No Controls!
- SEO using RSS
- Getting Feed on the Go
To those that help along this journey (to all my team mates: co-works, advisors, VCs, and family), thank you. The next journey begins down the path of providing a little gumption about this thing called RSS.

Welcome!
Syndication breaks down the current state of syndication to help publishers, marketers, and search providers get a "common sense" education on what is possible, who might be stretching the truth, and what is just plain crap. Feedback greatly appreciated.
