The News Feeds tab in the Admin Panel is the control center for your engine’s real-time information stream. Unlike standard search results, the News section allows you to curate a high-authority news portal by aggregating unlimited RSS feeds from the world’s most trusted sources.
📰 Curating Your News Portal
This tab allows you to act as a digital editor, choosing exactly which sources feed into your platform:
- Unlimited Feed Integration: You can add as many RSS feeds as you like, whether they are global giants like the New York Times and PRLOG or niche regional blogs.
- Feature Mastery: With a single toggle, you can enable or disable the entire News Feed page. When active, it becomes a major navigation hub on your frontend.
- Active Management: The dashboard gives you a bird’s-eye view of your news network, showing the Name, URL, and Active Status of every feed, along with the total number of articles currently pulled from each source.
⚙️ Automation and Real-Time Updates
The system is built to stay fresh without constant manual intervention:
- Batch Updating: While the system uses cron jobs for automated updates, you can use the “Update All Feeds” button to manually trigger a site-wide refresh, ensuring the latest breaking news is available instantly.
- Granular Control: For individual sources, you have the power to Edit, Refresh, or Delete specific feeds. This is ideal for pruning sources that become inactive or changing the focus of your news coverage.
- Timestamp Tracking: The interface tracks exactly when each feed was Last Updated, so you can monitor the health of your news connections and ensure your “Cron Jobs” are running on schedule.
💰 Monetizing the News
Every news page is a revenue opportunity. Because news readers spend more time on the page compared to quick searchers, this vertical is a prime location for your Snipesearch Adclicks feeds.
- Sticky Traffic: By offering a broad range of news, from USA politics to European tech, you keep users on your domain longer, increasing the likelihood of ad clicks and repeat visits.
- SEO Magnet: News pages are naturally rich in trending keywords. As your engine “learns” and caches these news stories, it builds a massive library of searchable content that search engines like Google love to index.
By mastering the News Feeds tab, you aren’t just providing information; you are building a high-traffic, automated media outlet that perfectly complements your “Surgical Search” ecosystem.
