PJN Computer Solutions gets an RSS feed

28 September 2008

I have now created 2 RSS feeds which will keep subscribers updated with the latest news and articles I submit.

RSS feeds are written in a website language called XML and would usually contain frequently updated information.

XML files are also used when creating a sitemap for a website.

I decided to write an RSS feed for my website so that I could submit my latest news and articles to RSS websites to try and draw more traffic to my website.

When there is an RSS feed attached to a website you will usually see an orange icon with a few white curved lines on it. Clicking this icon will either show a list of the possible RSS feeds to pick from, or it will take you to the RSS feed if there's only one present.

Internet Explorer 7 has the RSS feed icon displayed just under the address bar on the right hand side (by default), unless the user has moved it. Or Fire Fox displays the RSS icon actually in the address bar on the very right hand side (by default).
