I'm also not a fan of morphing feeds. Lets be real, with all the webmasters out there building blogs at a rate that even free-site builders would be impressed, is morphing really going to make enough of a difference to matter and since Google typically likes to slap sites pretty hard when they think they are trying to be fooled, is it worth it.

If your business plan is to develop blog after blog of duplicate content and search engines are where you are planning the bulk of your traffic to come from then you had better build thousands of them so you can live off of a couple hundred hits a day to each.

OK Walrus and T Pat, - I'm developing our feeds right now - what do you want in them. Remember that I'm a total newby so you can you may have to use small words.......

you can look at what I have so far at http://www.outlawpornblogs.com/

And I promise not to put any shemale blowjobs in my amateur teen stuff.

First, look at your blog in ie. I'm not sure what's blowing up the template but if it is something in your post and it did that to my blog how long do you think I'd use the feed. It's even worse on the comments page.

Second, look at the text on the very top post. You can feel free to use div's (I like them) to style your posts and hence your feed just pick classes that would be very specific to the site and even make the CSS available to your affiliates.

If you use a table to do that I'll kick you in the balls (and I wear steel toe boots). I don't have a nice clean CSS styled layout to have some dumbass feed fuck it all up with a table.

I'm not sure which script your using for your tag cloud or more importantly for adding the tags to your feed for a sponsors blog / feed I'd probably want them as straight categories. It's a benefit for you because you can publish seperate feeds per category (with WP) as well as the main feed. Just more options for me the RSS marketing dude to play with.

I plugged your feed into Porn Blog Bytes and have a problem with turning your tags into tags for my social bookmark site but that could be a problem on my end. I'll have to play around a bit to see.

You may also want to talk to T-Pat about Blog Organizer. I know there is a version available for sponsors which takes care of making sure all the affiliate codes gets passed through properly. I think he's played around with it a bit.

I don't think its as powerful as WP but for a sponsor blog / feed I don't think you really need all the plug-ins and what nots. Just a nice clean feed from a blog where I know my affiliate codes aren't getting lost somewhere.

I see the problem in IE - looks like a problem with the template - I'll have to dug deeper but when I change templates, it goes away.

Will do. we haven't tested this site fully yet (obviously) but we will test to see that affiliate codes get through before we push it to our affiliates.

Agree - still learning but your feedback is appreciated.

I do like the new template better.

I run a large monitor and never have my browser window full size. With the way your previous template looked, there was a slight amount of text running along the side of the picture. One or two words per line.

Maybe it's just me and one of my pet peeves but I hate that.

Changing templates fixed your blog but I wouldn't change my template to use your feed.

Yes but I really think it's my (pligg) fault. I'm really becoming a big pligg hater. Going to try playing with something else here in a little while.
