Make the most of your category and homepage feeds to automate, curate, and expand your content reach.

RSS feeds are a simple way to automatically share your website’s content with other tools and platforms. You can use them to:
-
Automate email newsletters with services like Mailchimp.
-
Distribute content more widely by sharing feeds with partners, news readers, or other websites.
-
Organize and curate articles into categories or tags that each generate their own feeds.
How Feeds Work
Every article category (and tag) on your site automatically generates two feed formats: RSS and ATOM. These feeds update in real time whenever new content is published.
While RSS readers are less common today, many marketing and automation tools still rely on RSS/ATOM to pull in fresh content.
Category & Tag Feeds
You can find the feed for any category or tag by visiting that page on your website. For example, if you have a 'Health+Wellness' category, the category page will include an RSS/ATOM feed link.
This makes it easy to:
-
Create curated topic-specific newsletters.
-
Share only certain types of content with partners or subscribers.
Homepage Feed
You can also manually generate a feed of all your homepage articles. To do this, add /?format=rss
to the end of your website URL.
Example: www.mywebsite.com/?format=rss
NOTE: For security reasons, this URL is protected to block malicious bots. That means it may not always work with certain tools or services.
Custom Homepage Feed for Email
If you want a feed specifically optimized for newsletters (with larger images and without the “Originally posted at” label), use the special feed URL:
https://www.yourdomain.com/newsletter_feed
See a live example here:
https://www.thembnews.com/newsletter_feed
