There are numerous methods for the creation of an outgoing feed including the conversion of current HTML files to RSS, using fill-in-the-blank RSS creation forms like the new one from Newshour, and adapting database driven CMS tools. With all that ease of RSS creation in mind, it’s still important to leverage your feed, play nice with RSS, and do all the promotion you can.

To explain what RSS is and why it has everyone so excited, let me just start out on common ground with something we already know, a traditional website. Traditionally, a website contained whatever content may have been put on it and that content may be static or may change constantly. The problem here has always been that a user had no way of knowing when or if that content had changed other than checking back periodically or being notified by someone.

It’s been pointed out to me recently, and rightly so, that although I’ve been telling everyone how important it is to have and promote and use RSS feeds for their sites, I haven’t stopped to explain anything about how one would actually go about doing that. Personally, I recommend the use of RSS Pixy Dust, but, if you don’t happen to have that available, it gets a little more complicated.
