How To Use RSS Feeds at Squidoo - A Simple Explanation

Category:  RSS

How to add an RSS feed to your Squidoo lens?

And why would you want to do that anyway?

Firstly... WHAT IS RSS?

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and you use it to add content from other people's sites to your lens, just by copying a single line of code.

From the lensmaster's point of view... The best thing about RSS is that the content is automatically updated on your lens whenever it changes at the other site.

WHY USE RSS FEEDS?

1. Fresh new content is fed into your lens frequently, without you doing a thing. Nice eh?

2. Squidoo won't even list your lens until you have at least 4 modules. That is, 4 blocks of information on your lens. Writing several articles is a great way to help achieve that. Adding an RSS feed is an easier way but why not do both?

WHERE DO YOU GET RSS FEEDS FROM?

Today almost every online publisher and blogger provides a feed so you can publish their stuff on your site. You would have seen the orange XML rectangles and more recently the square orange RSS logos. The links under those symbols are RSS feeds.

If you're stuck and all you want is something relevant to your lens, then here is the code for a Yahoo News feed about Seth Godin, the creator of Squidoo:

Just change [seth+godin] to [your+three+keywords] or [keyword]. Without the brackets, of course.

In "Using RSS Feeds at Squidoo – A Simple Explanation, Part 2", we will go through the steps to add this feed to your Squidoo lens. Soon you'll be a master at this.
