Гугл теперь учитывает ссылки в RSS
RSS/Atom feeds have been very popular in recent years as a mechanism for content publication. They allow readers to check for new content from publishers. Using feeds for discovery allows us to get these new pages into our index more quickly than traditional crawling methods. We may use many potential sources to access updates from feeds including Reader, notification services, or direct crawls of feeds.

Хм, а разве он их раньше не учитывал ?
Получается, что нет.
Вот так, век живи – век учись.
