Bloggers, Turn On Your RSS Feed

Folks, more and more bloggers (such as Yours Truly) are using blogrolls that show the time of the last blog update. They are very convenient to readers, as one does not have to surf to find updates. If a blog you like to check has a new post, you can see that they do.

So it may drive more readers to your blog if you turn on the feed. Of course, you may have so many readers that you don't give a frak whether or not anyone new comes by. But maybe you do.

(Yes, I'm looking at you and you.)

You got it Misfit! I go to the blogroll first and do like it a bunch and "They gave us a republic"does not get read near enough because of that.

Good point! I have to use the RSS feeds or I'd be lost.

Perhaps the others are like me... sorta chalenged by some of these things. I had to ask you about HTML tags just so I could include a link in a comment, and now I couldn't tell you if my RSS feed was on or not.

Sign me... clueless.

MB, the easy way to tell is to go to a blag that you know which has the type of blogroll which ranks blogs by most recent updates.

Yours is turned on, by the way.

For those who do not have it enabled, sign into blogger and select "settings", open up the "site feed" tab and make sure that the "allow blog feeds" is set to "full", then click "save settings" at the bottom of the page.

Those of you who use Wordpress or some other software, yer on yer own.

You pointed at my blog. I'm a techno-moron. I'd be happy to turn the RSS feed on, but I'm confused.

For those who do not have it enabled, sign into blogger and select "settings", open up the "site feed" tab and make sure that the "allow blog feeds" is set to "full", then click "save settings" at the bottom of the page.

I've had all those settings saved for years. If this were all I needed to do, I'd be fine. Obviously I need to do something else. What is it?

(Note that I have a 2002-vintage Blogger template. I keep putting off getting an updated template because I don't want to screw up my old comments and Site Meter and so on.)

Steve, those are the only settings that I know of. This is the help page on site feeds.

That's all I know, unfortunately.

Thanks. I'm trying....
