The Importance of RSS Feeds

What is an RSS Feed?

An RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed provides our readers/followers a convenient way to receive our posts (newly published by us) via reader/email/etc.


Let’s say a reader enjoys your post and views it for that day.......which is great, but what about your DAILY posts in which they could benefit from? If they subscribe, they wouldn't miss a thing!

A feed offered in feed burner for example, can not only offer our readers this neat option, but you can generate your sitemap from this, submit to Google, and allow for easier access all around.

Really Simple Syndication (RSS) is an easy way for Web sites to share headlines and stories from other sites. Web surfers can use sophisticated news readers to surf these headlines using RSS aggregators.

Hope that made sense.

I highly recommend to use this awesome tool for anyone wanting to fully optimize their site.

  1. Yeah, I can't imagine not offering a feed, even though people are moving away from reading blogs in readers.
