Internet Marketers are a particular breed; we're always looking for an 'easier" or "quicker" way of doing things; not necessarily shortcuts, but just ways to work smarter. It's the same with RSS. When I first came across it, I immediately went to Google and not only picked out a tool that could help me syndicate my own website (so I wouldn't have to spend time learning XML), but I also found several tools that I could use to display RSS Feeds from other websites onto mine! These tools are ridiculously simple, and I'd fully suggest that you try them before venturing into learning how to display RSS Feeds on your webpages through code.

If your website is in PHP, you can use the following software:

CaRP

This software also has a frëe version, which displays a simple ad in the middle of the news display saying something like "these news headlines brought to you by CaRP". Try it out; it's easy to use, and will teach a lot about managing RSS Feeds.

There are JavaScrïpt alternatives available as well (in case your website uses plain HTML).

Jawfish

Like CaRP, Jawfish also has a frëe trial, which is once again easy to setup if you can follow step-by-step instructions.

FeedRoll

Another JavaScrïpt alternative is FeedRoll – this is perhaps the easiest to use of the three mentioned hëre, but it offers less flexibility and choice of feeds compared to the others.

Of course, if you want more options (or have ASP or something on your website), go to your search engine of choice and type in "How to display RSS Feeds on my website" to get a quick listing of articles, tutorials and more tools to help you out.
