What Is RSS?

If you are unfamiliar with RSS and RSS feeds, RSS stands for “Rich Site Summary” and it is a way of delivering regularly changing web content to the people who want to be notified of these updates.

RSS allows you easily stay informed about your favorite websites by retrieving the latest content from the sites you are interested in. This allows you to save time because you don’t have to visit each of your favorite sites individually to see if new content has been added. Instead, RSS automatically notifies you when updates have been made and you can quickly and easily enjoy new articles from your favorite sites.

For a quick and easy explanation of RSS, watch the video below:

Bookmarking Your Favorites Sites Is “Old School”

The problem with bookmarking your favorite sites is that:

You as the web surfer have to do all the work

It can get complicated when you are trying to track a number of different websites at once

You end up seeing the same information over and over again on sites that don’t update very often

You can miss information when you forget to check your bookmarks

RSS Changes The Game

RSS provides you with a method of getting relevant and up to date information sent to you for you to read in your own time. It saves you time and helps you to get the information you want quickly after it was published.

Subscribing to an RSS feed is much like subscribing to a magazine. But instead of that magazine being delivered to you in the mail, your RSS feed subscription is delivered to your ‘RSS Reader’ every time your favorite website(s) updates.
