What should I do with my blog once it’s created? Beside adding regular posts, you should add RSS feed (Really Simple Syndication) to your blog. RSS is a method of distributing links to content in your blog that you'd like others to use. In other words, it's a mechanism to "syndicate" your content. How does RSS syndication work? Say you publish a new blog posting about a particular topic. You want others interested in that topic to know about it. By listing the page as an "item" in your RSS file, you can have the page appear in front of those who read information using RSS readers or "news aggregators" RSS also allows people to easily add links to your content within their own web pages. Bloggers are a huge core audience that especially does this. Blogs provide you with many benefits and they are free to use. So why not try them out – you have nothing to lose!
