Common questions about RSS, feeds, syndication, namespaces, extensions, and podcasting.
I have heard the phrase web feed but I’m not really clear on what it is. Can you explain what a web feed is?
When people use the term web feed it is typically used synonymously with an RSS feed, but not always. The phrase web feeds can also refer to data feeds or XML feeds. Both data feeds and XML feeds might use a different format (tag structure) than RSS. If a website is asking you to submit your web feed it is safe to assume they will accept RSS. If a website is providing you a web feed to display content on your website it may or may not be in the RSS format.
No, many mobile devices all support RSS feeds.
There are a number of ways to track an RSS feeds popularity. Unfortunately because of the nature of syndication the tracking is not always reliable or accurate. Use the followng to track the consumption of RSS feeds.
- Tracking URLs
- Transparent Gif
- Web logs
- The 3rd Party Services (like FeedBurner, Pheedo, FeedCraft, MeasureMap, SiteMeter, Dr.5z5)
- Use Unique URLs
The best tracking will result when a combination of tracking methods are employed. More information on tracking RSS feeds.

The RSS feeds are not all in the same format. There are a number of versions of the RSS specification. There is also a competing specification, called Atom. Atom is thought of as a superior specification but is far less popular than RSS. To the end user there is no discernible difference to content created using the various specifications. Currently RSS 2.0 is the most popular and widely used format for content syndication, this is in part because of the popularity of podcasting and as RSS 2.0′s support for the enclosure field.
Most RSS readers support all of the RSS formats, and will display a feed as long as it conforms to the specifications of one of the valid formats.
It depends! Some blog search engines want the URL of the html web page, while others will ask for the RSS feed. If you are manually submitting the blog/blog feed, you will just need to pay particular attention to what they are asking for. If you are given the option of providing html or rss, you will want to provide the RSS feed so that it dynamically updates as your RSS feed updates.
The most popular version of RSS is version 2.0. This specification is held at the Berkman Center at Harvard University. RSS 2.0 is offered by the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School under the terms of the Attribution/Share Alike Creative Commons license.
