If you want to updates available to your RSS reader/utility when MommyRecommends.com publishes new information, articles, or content then you'll want to add our RSS Feed to your list.
Why RSS?
Don't feel bad if it's somewhat confusing. MOST people (even experienced people) using the internet have no idea what RSS is (yet), and we want to help as many newbies use RSS now, so that it's second nature later.
RSS is to information on the web, as channels are to a shows on TV.
You just put the RSS information (xml) into your reader, then when you're running your reader, our latest updates are available in your reader.
HOW to use RSS Easily...
I'm an experienced web user, however, I still fumble around with RSS.
Here are three separate ways I've done it in the past (pick one that works best for you):
1) I've created a MyYahoo.com account, and then going to the website that offers the feed (in your case that's MommyRecommends.com.com) added a feed to Yahoo by clicking "Add to My Yahoo" button on the publisher site:
and then a Yahoo webpage opens and you click on the "Add to My Yahoo!" button. (Sometimes I've had to 'remove' and the 're-add'.) Flaky. But don't get frustrated.
2) Login to your Yahoo! account and click on the MyYahoo! link. Then Click "Add Content". On the next page, to the right of the "Find" there's a tiny link that says "Add RSS by URL" that will take you to the page where you paste in our rss.xml URL (http://www.MommyRecommends.com/rss.xml) and then click 'Add' button. Then next screen then shows you an "Add to MyYahoo" button that you must click. Voila! Now you've added the feed to your MyYahoo! list.
2) I've clicked on the button/image that reads "XML" or "RSS" and then paste the URL (ending in .xml) into my RSS Feedreader.
Not terribly scientific, but it worked for me.
Our RSS Feed URL is: http://mommyrecommends.blogspot.com/atom.xml
3) Here are buttons with the feed built-in:
For web-based RSS readers that you're already using, pick the one you want (from above) or for a PC/Mac based reader use the URL: http://mommyrecommends.blogspot.com/atom.xml
Enjoy!
