Are you looking to make an RSS feed available for your users to subscribe to, or are you looking to place someone elses RSS feed on your site?

slightly off topic but could you point me towards any articls or posts that would be good for somebody who just started researching RSS feeds TODAY? (basically a guide for RSS newbies). In the meantime I will search the forums. Thanks,
Mike

Content Master, how many pages would you like to create RSS feeds of? If you want to just do a feed of newest topics or site updates setting up a blogger account might be a good start. It is really simple to use and requires only basic HTML to understand and incorperate with your site and it also provides a feed.

Sorry, but you cannot put down the link. It sounds like you need an easy programming free method of creating rss feeds outside of a content management systems or "blogging" style of software. There are tutorials online of how to create a php scraper script of your individual pages and rss feeds, but this would fall under the programming category. One solution may be to hire out to get this done...another may come from a 3rd party solution such as "my rss creator", but you should look into the following free service that lets you add a few tags to your page and creates a feed for you: [wcc.vccs.edu...] I would test it out thoroughly and try subscribing to it with bloglines or a similar aggregator before you make it live.
