This icon is for an RSS feed. RSS feeds are great for users who want to add the website\u2019s content to an RSS reader\u2014but what does this even mean? Let\u2019s find out.<\/p>\n<h2>Explaining RSS Feeds<\/h2>\n<p>RSS is an acronym that stands for \u201creally simple syndication\u201d or \u201crich site summary,\u201d depending on who you ask.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, it boils down to two parts of the same process. If you visit many websites, you can use software to build an RSS feed reader (or news aggregator) that can pull those highlights into one place. This is great for websites that regularly produce new content, like news websites, podcasts, web shows, and blogs.<\/p>\n<p>With an online RSS feed or browser extension, like <a href=\"https:\/\/feedly.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Feedly<\/a>, you can subscribe to different websites and aggregate their content in one place, making consumption much easier.<\/p>\n<h2>Aggregate the Content You Want into Your Own RSS Feed Reader<\/h2>\n<p>Want to build an RSS feed for yourself? Follow these steps.<\/p>\n<p>Many RSS readers allow you to search for websites to follow, but if there\u2019s one in particular you are looking for, just keep an eye out for the orange icon. Click this icon, and you can add it to your RSS feed. If the link brings you to a simple webpage with links to articles and website identifiers, copy the page\u2019s URL into your RSS reader, and you should be all set.<\/p>\n<p>We hope you find a great use for RSS technology so you can be more productive with your content consumption!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some websites have an orange icon with waves coming from a dot in the bottom-left corner.
