While developing a site for a client I was surprised to hear their request to remove the RSS icon. I realized that they were not familiar with the benefits of subscribing to RSS feeds to follow their favorite online content so I decided to write this post for anyone not familiar with using RSS feeds.
The Benefits of Using RSS Feeds
RSS saves time. It’s as simple as that. The amount of information that I am able to follow using RSS feeds is astonishing. Suppose you have 50 sites and blogs that you like to visit regularly. Going to visit each website and blog everyday could take you hours. With RSS, you can “subscribe” to a website or blog, and get “fed” all the new headlines from all of these 50 sites and blogs in one place, and see what’s going on in minutes instead of hours. Once I discovered using RSS feeds to follow content it quickly replaced my old way of bookmarking a site in my browser. Now all the new content from my bookmarks is automatically updated in one place for me to see every time I open my browser.


By definition, Search Engine Optimization is the process of improving the volume and quality of traffic to a website from search engines via search results for certain keywords.
