Creating rss feed for your blogspot blog

By Angsuman Chakraborty, Gaea News Network

One of the reasons I moved out from blogspot, to my own server, was because I couldn’t create a RSS Feed of the blog easily. Today I found that blogstreet provides a simple way to do so. Hence I created a RSS feed for my mostly java blog on blogspot. However as you know this blog is just there for reference to old entries and will not be updated often.
Which brings back the old question of whether I should reconsider blogspot?
Hell no! Hosting my own blog is loads of fun and gives you much greater control on the blog.
In fact if you too can host your blog on my own server.

Update: Now blogspot provides an Atom feed. Append /atom.xml to the end of your Blogspot URL to get your Atom feed. For example my blog - https://taragana.blogspot.com/ has an Atom feed at https://taragana.blogspot.com/atom.xml .

Many news readers and aggregators doesn’t support Atom feed yet. You can use feedburner to convert any Atom feed (including your Blogspot feed) to RSS feed. It additionally has several features to spice up your feed including tracking feed usage and advertising.

We’ve successfully created a super blog combining a few different blogs from a few different hosts (i.e. blogger / wordpress / livejournal) BUT can’t edit the look - We are currently using Gregarius 0.6.1 which is great but not very attractive.
?Are there any other companies similar but with more options for the “themes” that anyone knows of?

I would also recommend Wordpress to any new users looking to start a blog. They have lots of attractive, easy to use blog templates that are perfect for beginners.

Nice info.. Thank’s

I want to have the whole description of the item in my feeds (from my wordpress blog) when I add the RSS feed to my blogger blog. In blogger when I add a layout element for feeds it just fetches (and displays) the ‘title’ of the items.
Please suggest a way to do it.
Thanks.

Hi!

Thanks for this info. I was already getting exasprerated on how to access the atom feed and I run into your post.

March 7, 2008: 5:06 am

Could You clear me
What is the difference between Atom And RSS Feed

Which one is better for SEO.

January 22, 2008: 10:14 am

I’m on blogger and looking for advice. Because I didn’t want my url to be @blogspot.com, Network Solutions pointed my address to https://www.yourareerservice.com/

FeedBurner only recognises blogspot.com. So my RSS button shows up on that but not on yourcareerservice.om

Blogger has no customer service.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I’d like to blog elsewhere but don’t want to lose audience in a switch and start building all over again.

Regards,
