Last week, I put the <skipDays> tag into my RSS feed, telling aggregators not to bother checking it on Saturdays and Sundays. It’s in the RSS specification, even if you’ve never heard of it.
To my surprise, traffic to my RSS feed fell by more than 4% on Sunday (compared to the previous Sunday). Almost 800 fewer requests. Excellent.
