How to Promote RSS Feeds?
There is a little controversy about RSS feed that it brings traffic. Once you create RSS feed in your site, how the people will know about that RSS feed?
You can submit your RSS feed to RSS directories. There are many RSS directories in which you can submit RSS feeds freely. RSS feeds are grouped together in specific category based on the subject of those feeds. Online users search for RSS feeds in RSS directories to find RSS of their interest.

Once you have placed RSS feed in your website, you need to explain RSS feeds in your website so that everyone who lands on your site can understand what RSS is; because not everyone knows about RSS feeds.
With the emergence of RSS feeds, the location of RSS was denoted as colourful flag. Now-a-days look of those flags is changed. Chicklets are used to indicate the presence of RSS feed in your website. Chicklets are known as small square icons which are used to describe the presence of RSS feeds.
