Hello, I set up an RSS forum a while ago for news from my Wordpress site to go into the news section in my forum as a few people use the forum and don't visit the site to read the news. It worked great for months, but now, suddenly forum RSS topics are ranking high whereas wordpress posts are suddenly not given priority in the search results. What steps can I take to prevent/reverse this from happening?
Make the RSS forum a member-only forum. Or create unique posts for your news forum, rather than duplicating content with RSS.
