Go to the website whose RSS feed you are looking for. If it has one, then it probably includes a link to it. Try looking on the page’s menu (usually left side or right side) and the footer. Most often websites advertise RSS feeds with small icons. The most common is an XML icon like this , but there are a number of variations of labels (RSS, RSS2, XML, RDF, Atom), color, and size, such as  and . Other times, there may not be an image, but text with one of those labels, or a link labeled “Syndicate this site.”

How to Read RSS Feeds?

Internet users can employ special software, like newsreaders and RSS-aggregators, to organize RSS feeds and get automatic updates. Such types of programs go beyond simply reading. They also organize RSS feeds, manage updates, monitor website changes and search for information online. They can keep you automatically updated on the latest changes by checking RSS feeds and displaying items from them.

RSS aggregators are set up to check for updates periodically from the feeds to which you subscribe, usually once every day. In other words, the information comes to you, rather than you having to go to the websites yourself. This saves a tremendous amount of time. In addition, you can read many more feeds in the same amount of time. Many people read several hundred feeds. That just would not be feasible without an RSS aggregator. Additionally, you avoid all the non-new information on a web page, including the ads, menus, etc. (deskshare)
