when we talk about rss feed and sending rss ping, what dose it mean? how do you use this service? i know there are rss services (sites), but how do you actually use them for your blog or an article? i need an over all explanation of this thing and how and why and what for kind of thing.

thank you so much. thank you in advance RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication.

RSS is a standard format for syndicating content on the Internet. The content can be anything!

Users can choose which feeds they wish to subscribe to, if at any point they are unhapy with the content contained in the RSS feed they simply unsubscribe and no longer receive feed updates.

RSS feeds are usually signalled by a small orange icon or if you are using Firefox and the website has an RSS feed available an icon will appear in the URL box. You can click the icon to see the contents of the RSS feed.

Now i can even have another idea how to use RSS for my blog site. Simple syndication is really helpful specially to not so old blog site that needs more traffic. Thanks again! Website visitors love RSS because they choose which feeds they wish to subscribe to, if at any point they are unhapy with the content contained in the RSS feed they simply unsubscribe and no longer receive notification of feed updates.

RSS is really a win, win for both subscribers and publishers. Quote: Originally Posted by Cricket http://www.v7n.com/forums/seo-forum/156614-how-does-rss-work.html#post1240965 Thanks Cricket RSS feeds is also a short list summary of your site content.
