I have noticed in some of my feeds that they have started putting links into the ads right int he RSS feeds. There is about 1 ad for every 5 articles

Of course the web sites are going to either add advertising to the feeds or send you teasers and make you go back. And at the end of the day if there is value in the content, people will put up with the ads or they will follow the links back to the web sites. Heck, if the content is really valuable, people might even pay for the RSS feeds themselves.

What about including sponsored ads in the RSS feeds? In the same way Indeed includes sponsored ads in a web search, they could include sponsored ads (PPC) clearly marked as sponsored in the feed.

Sounds like text style advertising like CheezAds, attached to the blogs/jobs, might be a good option for bloggers and job search engines looking to generate RSS style revenue. (http://www.cheezhead.com/cheezads)
