Title:UK RSS News feeds research

Location:Anywhere

Job Description

I have a spread sheet of 500 UK locations and regions, and for each I need 3 RSS feeds researched. The RSS feeds should come from local newspapers and be related to local news. If there are not 3 feeds in each area then the balance can be made up of a good community RSS feed which covers local news and/or issues.

Each of the feeds should be ideally generated in their particular locale. For example, I don\'t want feeds from say the BBC/Telegraph etc focussed on that local area.

All in all 1500 feeds are required, but about 500 are done already. Those found so far have been via Google searches, with the RSS url then being copied to the spread sheet.

No validation or quality checks need to be done on each of the feeds - other than to see they work. If an area doesn\'t have 3 feeds, its fine to make a note of such and move on.

I\'m looking for a turnaround time of about a week-10 days and am only interested in bids from people who have a good understanding of the UK news market.

I\'m happy to do a quick call with the winning bidder to clarify any points.

Thx in advance
