How to parse WordPress archives

The common task for every affiliate is to fill out his blog with initial amount of sponsored posts. The problem is that usually there are only about 10 or so most recent posts in the RSS feed which belongs to some rather old hosted blog (usually WordPress-based one) which already has hundreds of posts aboard. This is the moment when affiliate asks a question: "how can I aggregate all those old posts? is that possible at all?"

The answer is yes, this is possible! ..of course if you have the CyberSEO Suite plugin installed

TRICK: Over 100 sponsors are using popular WordPress engine to create their hosted blogs and generate quality RSS content (including popular morphing feeds) for their affiliates. So if you syndicate such an RSS feed, simple activate the "Parse WordPress archives" check box in the RSS Feed Syndicator settings. That's it! Now CyberSEO Suite will be able to aggregate ALL the published posts from a given WordPress blog even if its RSS feed contains only a few recent posts.

TIP: If you are going to pull all the available posts at once, set the "Base date" option to "Get date from post". But if you are going to pull the posts smoothly (say one post per day), set it to "Use syndication date".

Here is a sample blog, which was filled with the archived posts from 70spornmovies.com by PayServe within just 5 minutes: http://retroporn.rbbloggers.com/


Have a nice day
