Internet and Web Marketing Tools

Here is an introduction to building rss feeds. By creating an rss feed from your website you can communicate with subscribers regularly without waiting for them to visit your website.

How To Build RSS Feeds

You can easily build RSS feeds if you know how. RSS is a method that you can use to syndicate or distribute your content. So for example if you have a web site with useful content it is a way of distributing those links to your content that will allow others access to it. People with RSS readers can easily read your content without actually visiting your web site. The way this works is that they subscribe to your RSS feed using the RSS reader and they view the content directly from the RSS reader.

If you know html you can easily make a rss file. Basically a rss file consists of items. So for example if your web page has a list of web sites that you recommend then these would be listed in your RSS feed by title, description and link. So all your web sites would be described in tags in the categories listed above. In addition to this you also need to add the standard header and footer tags for a RSS feed.

Once you are done creating your RSS feed you need to save it as a xml file. After this you need to validate your xml to ensure that it meets the standards of a RSS feed. You can use the Feed Validator service which is free on the web. However, you can save yourself a lot time by using a professional RSS feed creator like Feed Editor and automate the entire process.

After you have completed your RSS feeds you need to let the world know about it. You need to visit the most popular RSS directories and submit your web site to their directories. It will also be useful to ping the major services and inform them that your weblog or RSS feed has been updated with new content.
