I’ve primarily stuck to aggregated trend/topic lists to keep the list manageable. Does this work? So how do you monitor these trends?

However from an SEO perspective there is a downside, as syndication creates duplicate content issues. Search engines don’t want to show users multiple versions of the same content, so when an article has been syndicated it’s likely that one version will be given prominence – and that may or may not be the original.
