How To Use RSS Feeds at Squidoo Made Easy

By: Gary Harvey

How to add an RSS feed to your Squidoo lens?

And why would you want to do that anyway?

Firstly... WHAT IS RSS? - A simple intro.

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

If you can copy and paste, you can do this, okay?

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 accomplishthat. Adding an RSS feed is an easier way but why not do both?

WHERE DO YOU GET RSS FEEDS FROM?

Today almost every blog (and tons of websites too) provides a feed so you can publish their content on your site. You would have seen those orange XML rectangles and more recently the square orange RSS logos. The links under those symbols are RSS feeds.

If 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 cover the steps to add this feed to your lens. Dead easy, and I will show you how.
