What is ROR?
ROR (Resources of a Resource) is a rapidly growing independant
XML format for describing any object of your content in
a generic fashion, so any search engine can better understand
that content. RORweb.com is the official ROR website.
ROR promotes the concept of structured feeds (which is
related to the concept of structured blogging) enabling search
engines to complement text search with structured information
to better understand meaning. ROR information is typically stored
in a ROR feed called ror.xml placed in your website's
main directory. Unlike Google Base, ROR feeds can be easily accessed
by all search engines: at http://www.your-website-name.com/ror.xml
You can think of your ROR feed as a powerful structured feed
for describing all your objects to the search engines: products,
services, reviews, discounts, images, events, schedule, podcasts,
anything you want.
The current object types and attributes of the ROR format can
be found here. We are working with several
companies and individuals in defining new object types and attributes
for everyone to use. If you want to participate in this effort
(i.e. submit a schema, suggest new types and attributes), please
contact us at the email address above.
As we expand the ROR format, our goal is to re-use exisisting
data structures and formats as much as possible.
