How to create RSS feeds easily - with this simple guide !
Follow these simple steps to create feeds of your site.
1) Decide which page(s) you want to use as feed. Usually such
pages qualify which contain the latest updates on product or
service information of that site. Remember that requirements
vary from site to site. Decide your own feed carefully.
2)Open notepad and write down the following lines:
[channel title]
[channel description]
[channel link]
[item title]
[item description]
[item link]
[more items here]
3.Replace [channel title] with your site title.
4.Replace [channel description] with your site description.
5.Replace [channel link] with your site url.
6.Replace [item title] with the title of the page you want to
show up as feed .
7. Replace [item description] with description of that item
page.
8. Replace [item link] with the url of the item page.
9. Repeat steps 6 to 8 to create multiple items for your feed
and replace [more items here].
Save the file with extension .rss or .xml (there are other
extensions also , but for beginners it is best to keep it simple)
Now use this tool to verify that your feed is ok to use. Once it
is verified to be ok , upload the file to your server. Thats it !
You are now ready to distribute your content to anyone who thinks
it worthy !!
