So, I can create my RSS file by hand, using one of the nice Perl tools, or via PHP, that's not the question.

What do I do with it?
Do I just place it out on the server, thus giving it a URI, like any other file?

I have a lot of daily-updated content dealing with specific medical and wellness questions. Naturally, I'm thinking that making an RSS available might bring more traffic our way.

I've looked at a few online tutorials, but they are aggravatingly vague, general, they discuss the abstract merits of RSS, and the syntax of the XML itself. I need specific advice, i.e. tell me Exactly What To Do.

And what was it I read in a previous post about it becoming "illegal"? Was that a joke?
