What Is RSS?

Do you want to keep up to date with the latest Lymm Traders updates?

There are a number of ways that you can subscribe to Lymm Traders and receive updates. One of those options is our RSS feed.

But what is RSS?

RSS is a technology used by billions of webblog readers to keep track of their favorite websites. Previously to keep track of updates on a website you had to 'add to favourites' in your browser and return to the site on a regular basis to see what had been updated.

The problems with bookmarking.

You had to do all the work! It can get very complicated when you are trying to track lots of websites at once. You miss information when you forget to check and you end up seeing the same information over and over on sites that don't update very often.

What if you could tell a website to let you know every time that they update? In a sense, this is what RSS does for you.

RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication. Many people describe it as a 'news feed' that you subscribe to.

It's like subscribing to a magazine that is delivered to you periodically but instead of it coming in your physical mail box each month when the magazine is published it is delivered to your 'RSS Reader' every time your favorite website updates.

How to Use RSS.

Simply click the Subscribe by RSS Feed link and follow the simple instructions.

Don't want to use an RSS reader? Email is an option.

If the above explanation all just seems a too complicated then don't worry. You can also get updates by email. We know that not everyone is into the RSS thing so at the top of our left hand sidebar there is link to subscribe via email. It's 100% safe and your email address will not be passed to any third parties.

If you have any further questions please feel free to contact me, I'd be happy to help.
