What is an RSS feed
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds allow you to see when websites have added new content. You can get the latest content in one place, as soon as its published, without having to visit the websites you have taken the feed from.
Not all websites currently provide RSS, but it is growing rapidly in popularity and many others, including the BBC, Guardian, Sky and CNN provide it
What do I need?
You will need one of the folowing to subscribe and read RSS feeds:
A. Modern web browser
Many web browsers now allow you to add RSS feeds as browser favourite or bookmark folders. The folders are automatically updated with listings of links to the latest JHWalter pages.
B. Account with web-based news reader websites
Many popular web sites allow you to add RSS feeds to your homepage with them. There are also other dedicated news reader websites that you can use. Each feed you add shows up as a separate automatically updated listing of links to the latest JHWalter pages. This option is useful if you want to access the feeds from multiple computers.
C. Desktop news reader software
Some email software also allow you to read RSS feeds. In addition, there are dedicated news reader software that you can download and install.
How do I start using feeds?
All you have to do is to decide what content you want it to receive. For example, if you would like the latest Property Auction Lots, simply visit The County Property Auction section and you will notice an orange button with RSS Feed at the top of the webpage, underneath the phone number.
If you click on the RSS button you can subscribe to the feed in various ways, including by dragging the URL of the feed into your news reader or by cutting and pasting the same URL into a new feed in your news reader. Most sites that offer feeds use a similar orange button, but some may just have a normal web link.
Some browsers, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera and Safari, automatically check for feeds for you when you visit a website, and display an icon when they find one. This can make subscribing to feeds much easier. For more details on these, please check their websites.
How do I get a News Reader?
