#0, Integrating BlogBomb with FatBomb
Posted by Kurt on Nov-23-07 at 10:54 PM
You can "install" RSS pheeds into your FatBomb search results using BlogBomb.


1 you need the full server path to feedsearch_ssi.cgi

You will probably need to ask your host for the FULL SERVER PATH to your cgi-bin.

Then you need to add the path to feedsearch_ssi.cgi to the end of this path.

Here's how mine looks:
/home/virtual/dombom.com/var/www/cgi-bin/blogbombx/feedsearch_ssi.cgi

Getting the proper path is the "whole trick" to this...The easiest way to get the full server path is to ask your hosting support.

2 In Fatty admin, click the "feeds" link.

3. Then enter the full server path.
A. Enable the feed

B. Give it some weight. If you want to RSS pheeds to come up first, then give them a very high weight.

C. Search mode:
All - medium (pheed must have all the words, in any order)
Any - Less precise (pheed only needs one or more of the words, in any order)
All - Most precise (search phrase must be EXACTLY the same)

You can actually install multiple instances of blogbomb into Fatty. You will just need to rename BlogBomb each time and modify the FULL SERVER PATH accordingly.

You may want to do this if you are using RSS pheeds for Amazon or other affiliate programs, news topics, and/or your own RSS pheeds.

By creating multiple instances, you can give each more/less weight.

Maybe you want your affiliate links to rank highest, and the "news" to be mixed in with other results...
