How to Create RSS Feed for my blog website

An RSS feed is a great way to share your blog content with a wider audience and keep readers up-to-date with your latest posts. Creating an RSS feed for your blog website is a straightforward process, and can be done using various RSS feed generators or services.

After creating your RSS feed, you can also connect it to Circleboom a social media management tool that can post your feed updates automatically to your social media accounts.

Let’s dive in and learn how to create an RSS feed for your blog website!

To create an RSS feed for a blog website, follow these steps:

  1. Determine the content you want to include in your feed, such as blog posts, images, and links.
  2. Choose an RSS feed generator or service, such as Feedburner (https://feedburner.google.com/), Feedity (https://feedity.com/), or RapidFeeds (https://www.rapidfeeds.com/).
  3. Follow the steps provided by the chosen generator or service to create your feed, including inputting your website URL and customizing the feed’s appearance and content.
  4. Integrate the RSS feed into your website by copying and pasting the provided code into your site’s HTML.
  5. Validate your feed using a validation tool such as the W3C Feed Validation Service (https://validator.w3.org/feed/).
  6. Promote your feed by including subscription options on your site and promoting it on social media and other online platforms.
  7. Then copy your RSS feed and add to Circleboom to automate your posts.

There are a few other ways you can automatically post to social media from your blog website. Here are three options:

  1. Use a plugin or integration: Many blogging platforms (such as WordPress) have plugins or integrations available that allow you to automatically post new blog articles to your social media accounts. For example, the Jetpack plugin for WordPress includes a feature called “Publicize” that allows you to automatically share your posts on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and other platforms.
  2. Use a third-party service: There are also a number of third-party services (such as Circleboom, Hootsuite or Buffer) that allow you to schedule and automate social media posts. These services typically have a dashboard where you can create and schedule posts, and they will automatically post to your social media accounts at the designated times.
  3. Use the social media API: Many social media platforms (such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn) have APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) that allow you to programmatically post to their platforms. This option requires some programming knowledge, but it can be a powerful way to automate your social media posting.

No matter which method you choose, it’s important to make sure that you’re following the terms of service for each social media platform and that you’re not spamming your followers with too many automated posts.

Troubleshooting

  1. First; check your RSS Link if it is still valid or not.
  2. Second; check your daily limits. It is easy to exceed your daily limits. Don’t forget total daily Twitter Limits to tweet per day. You can check the updated limits https://help.twitter.com/tr/rules-and-policies/twitter-limits
  3. If the problem still persists, wait for a while. Sometimes the problem could be related to the Twitter API itself. Circleboom checks every RSS link regularly and tries to send your Tweets within your rate limits defined by Twitter.
