Hi all, i'm planning to add an RSS feed to a website for an org that puts up events on a regular basis. The website has a separate page for each event, a couple of article series that are updated on a weekly basis, a news page, and some resource pages that get updated once in a while. I'm new to RSS so i'm wondering what to put into the feed and what to ignore. And should i remove items from the feed as they expire or leave them all there forever? It seems to me that i should remove older items otherwise the XML file gets pretty big over time. The list i have so far:
1. Add an item when a new event is posted
2. Add an item when an event is updated (e.g. tickets go on sale)
3. Add an item when an article is added to one of the series
4. Add an item when a news item is posted
5. Add an item when a resource page is updated
6. Remove event items after they've taken place
7. Remove article/news items older than x months (what to use for x?)
What do you think? I'm thinking 2 and 5 may be a bit too much, but if people rely on the RSS feed to keep up to date, would they want to know about all updates? Or should I have separate feeds?
FWIW, i'm mostly interested in user friendliness, SEO is a low priority for this website. Thanks for any help or hints you can give me.
