Just in case you don’t know what exactly RSS is, here is a short note:

• RSS is a way to distribute your Web content to its consumers
• You do this by offering an option to interested readers to subscribe to your regularly updated content
• The subscription option is offered by creating an RSS button at your website, and by distributing your RSS feed to feed directories. Interested readers can then click the button or feed link.
• There are a large number of RSS feed directories to which you can submit your feed, and then ping them every time your content is updated and added to the feed
• Unlike emails (that is also a way to distribute updated content) there will be no spam complaints because only readers who subscribe to the feed get the content
• If you have good content that will interest many readers, creating an RSS feed and distributing it is an excellent way to get these readers visit your site every time you add content

RSS thus has the potential to generate traffic to your website.
