Like most of you, I own and operate a web design firm. I'm also very involved in the SEO aspects of the web. I run a blog that provides Search Engine Optimization Tips and Tricks. This blog provides a RSS feed (contact me if your interested in subscribing to this feed).
What I am wanting to do is find a way to publish my RSS feed into my company's website in a manner which the spiders will pick up. Effectively, looking to kill a bunch of birds with one stone. Use my blog to publish a topic of personal interest. Use that content in my company's site to increase its appeal with Google.
So far, I can only get this feed dynamically loaded via JS (so spiders won't like this)
Is there anyone in this forum doing this and if so, are there tools that you would recommend that I could check out?

Welcome to the forums, digitaljumpstart.
Like most of you, I own and operate a web design firm.
I'm not sure if that statement really describes most of the members here. I would, though, describe them simply as website owners.
As for the RSS feed, what you need is an RSS parser script like CaRP [link] or something similar. There are parser scripts in .asp, CGI, perl, php, etc. It really depends on what you want to use to parse the feed.
There's also a good tutorial here: [link]

Thank you very much for the reply. I managed to solve the problem quite effectively with a great site (and free..) that converted my atom.xml feed to html via PHP.
(It will allow you to display the RSS feed with either iframe, JS, PHP in your websites.)
The PHP method is the one I chose as it sourced my content for spiders to crawl properly.
I actually developed my site with ASP, so I needed to add a separate PHP page.
But all in all, seems to be working quite well.
Thanks again

That's a great idea. I saw an example of a site that has a few paragraphs of base content, then 10 different sources of RSS feeds that displayed the first paragraph and a link.
They had good fresh content that did not incur duplicate content penalties.
