I came upon this article (http://www.searchengineguide.com/mintz/004751.html) that talks about a google patent and to make a long story short, they believe that having RSS Newsfeeds on a static website will help it rank better or at least maintain it's ranking. It makes the search engines believe you're consistantly refreshing website content.
I'm very interested in this because I'm building a content website which is all static webpages and I'll maybe update the frontpage once a month if at all. If I do incorporate a RSS Newsfeed into the site, I'll probably put it near the bottom of the page to keep visitors on my site instead of having them click out to read the whole article elsewhere.
I haven't seen much static websites doing this, so maybe this whole RSS Feed/SEO thing is just a whole bunch of baloney?
I would like to hear everyone's thoughts on this.
