What is the best way to automatically add news feeds to my website? I understand RSS feeds can be good but they link to the host page. Is there a way I can have the content actually on my site.

I know I want this done automatically, but I only have so much time to spend on my site.
Any ideas?
paid?
where?

Cheers.
Steve.

FeedRoll Pro does this, and it's free.

I use a content management system called drupal.org
It is free.

do they update news from selected sources or do you have to manually add them?
like say i chose the topic, "Security" it would automatically add any it article with security in its keywords....

Thanks guys!

The feeds on my site are only feeds that are on topics such as Financial management, discout vacation, etc..

When you search a site like Feedster you search based on the subject your looking for and only add those as sources for your feeds.

Now if someone posts a story on another subject in to this category by mistake it will still be automatically added to my site unles I choose to have feeds have to get moderators approval first. Basically they would go to a staging area first before they are finally posted on my site.

Indeed, it cost money to syndicate your feed through them. However, assuming I understood the first thread correctly, the thread starter wanted to know how to take feeds, and display the content on their site. You can do that with FeedRoll Pro, and it's free.
