RSS - Really Simple Syndication
RSS is the acronym used to describe the format for easily sharing content on the web.
What type of content? Commonly things such as news items, job adverts or marketing communications are ideal candidates for RSS although almost any list orientated information can be suitable. 
How does it work?
An RSS document called a "feed", "web feed" or "channel", contains either a summary of content from an associated website or the full text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with their favorite websites on a regular basis without having to go into trouble of accessing them individually.
A website that wants to allow other sites to publish some of its content creates an RSS document and registers the document with an RSS publisher. A user that can read RSS-distributed content can use the content on a different site.
Why use RSS on your website?
Really Simple Syndication = Rich Site Summary
RSS is a wonderful thing. Imagine the state of the internet today. While spam is abundant, subscribing to a newsletter could potentially give your email out to spammers. RSS eliminates it and focuses on the information. There are many reasons to use RSS feeds - all of them are good. If you really need to boost your traffic, RSS is definitely the way to go.
Give it to your subscribers and clients!
With RSS you can even easily deliver news to your clients. RSS will help you expand your content delivery to daily content updates, content updates by interest and so on.
Give it to search engines!
RSS will increase your rankings with the most important search engines and at the same time, through RSS specific search engines and directories, generate new traffic for your website.
Search engines love RSS
You can submit your site's RSS feed to many different RSS directories. As robots crawl the web and come upon your feeds on many different sites, your website gets more hits, as a result your rankings will increase.
Forget about spam filters that are keeping your content away from your subscribers. RSS gets 100% of your content delivered.
And the best part: RSS feeds are free.
