RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication / RDF Site Summary / Rich Site Summary.
The frequently updated work like the blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video need to e published in a standardized format. RSS is a family of such Web feed formats. An RSS document is also called a feed, web feed or a channel. It comprises of full or summarized text as well as metadata (dates and authorship).
The purpose of the RSS is to let the publishers join the content quickly and automatically. It also benefits the readers who need timely updates from specific websites. The initials "RSS" are used to refer to the following formats: " (RSS 2.0)", " (RSS 0.91)".
Explain how RSS Works with an example.
With the help of RSS, the website authors can maintain a list of notifications on their website in a standard way.
This list can also be used to find out the latest updates even by people.
The RSS aggregators are used to automatically access the RSS feeds and organize the results per your criteria.
Describe the steps to get your RSS file up on the web.
Authors add the content on the website through the content management programs. These programs have a publish facility that creates the HTML files.
These programs can even update the RSS feed XML file simultaneously. Thus they add an item that refers to the new content and then they remove old content.
Authors who do not use special tools maintain the XML files on their websites by themselves
Some services even read requested websites themselves periodically and then determine changes automatically.
