WHAT IS RSS FEED?

If you read my post yesterday you will find out that i was very ecstatic about my being able to create the url of my rss feed. Don't blame me -i was almost frustrated from getting the fee active.



now i want to say one or two other things on rss feed. Things like 'what rss feed is' and 'how to be able to read it.



RSS feed is a way to syndicate the content of your blog for wider and easy access by your subscribers. OK, its , in its simplest XML file wthat carries the title of the site, date/time of posting, description and a link to the post. it is really simple syndication and a great resource for the user.

I think the next question is how to get access to read the file. The answer to this is to use a RSS READER. This is a software ,extention built into a browser that enable the subscriber to read the XML code as areadable information. what you do is to just go over to the reader and click on 'update' and the XML code will be deciphered into a readable form for you.

Before i stop in this post let me quickly state one advantage of RSS feed. It makes aaccessing blog post easy for the subscriber without having to log on to the blogs subscribed to one after the other. Thats for the subscriber and for the publisher, as i have stated earlier it means more visibility as it can lead to great increase in traffic to a site.

DID YOU FIND THIS POST INFORMATIVE OR INSIGHTFUL? DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION TO ASK OR COMMENT TO MAKE? PLEASE DO SO, IT WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED.

how to create rss url for your blog on blogger.

I had problems creating my rss feed url on my blogspot blog for days. i tried google search and couldnt make a headway. But then days later i was made to realize i had been living in the stone age as far as rss feed and reader are concerned.Why did i say that? well because creating the rss url for a blogspot blog is so easy.

well there might be other ways of creating it but what iam going to tell you is as simple as A-B-C believe me.

The answer is in the FEEDBURNER site.

just go over to their home page and sign in with your gmail accout info and then then type your blogspot url in the box with the tag ''Burn a feed right this instant'' and you will be required to choose the rss format you want wether atom feed or rss feed. Boy!!! i was ecstatic when i copied the rss url for my blog into ''my yahoo'' and my rss url was added as one of the rss feed.

The significance is that i can now increase traffic to my blog and share my insightful info with many people online as they subscribe to my rss feed.
the next thing i will do now is to sumit my feeds url to the various rss feed directories out there online . That means more visibility and more benefit in kind and cash.. there is a site that i know where i can get these directories. the site is www.masternewmedia.com just scroll down and in your right{in the middle or so} you till fing a link to 55 such directories-actually the real no is 250.
