Bonus Features

Rapid Meta-Tags has three bonus features. These are tools that have very little to do with meta-tags, but use the same technology already developed for Rapid Meta-Tags. They have been included in the hope that you'll find them useful; certainly the RSS feed creator should be useful to everyone.

The features are as follows:

Strip HTML Tags

This batch process will strip the HTML tags out of your pages, leaving you with plain text, and save the resulting text to files in the folder you specify. It is designed to allow you to take articles you have written, and then formatted into HTML web pages, and quickly return them to plain text.

Extract FrontPage Editable Regions

One of the problems with Microsoft FrontPage's Dynamic Web Templates system is that once you have applied a template to a page, it is impossible to remove the code without manually deleting it. Now you can quickly and easily strip the formatted content of your articles from these templates as a batch process, stripping an entire site at once. You don't need to change the website in order to do this either; you can save a copy of the stripped content without affecting the original web pages.

Create or Update an RSS Feed

RSS is an XML format designed for news syndication, but it's use is not limited to news sites. Any site that has content in the form of separate articles or products can use RSS to syndicate this content. The most common use of RSS works like this: you create an RSS feed with the title, url and an extract from each article on your site, and make it available to the world. Other websites that like your content will include your feed in their sites, thus spreading your message, and generating links and visitors to your site.

Creating these RSS feeds used to be a complicated process, but no more. Now you can simply list the pages you want included in your RSS feed, and this bonus feature will do the rest. Simple.
