In an ongoing series of articles we'll show you how to put WoW Insider on your own blog, guild website, personal website, or even on your computer's desktop. For a complete list of the software that's covered, check out our guide's index.

About a generic RSS feed

With all of our previous guides, we've basically setup the site using the RSS address for WoW Insider. Getting this address, or any other site's address, is pretty easy – but often not understood. The old adage "If you teach a man to fish, he can eat for his life," comes into play here. If you can get the RSS address for WoW Insider, then you can get it for any page and use the other guides to syndicate any other site.

How to get WoW Insider's RSS Feed Address



1. Go to http://www.wowinsider.com/
2. Click on the little orange RSS icon in the address bar.



3. You'll be taken the RSS feed, and you'll see that the address in the address bar has changed. For WoW Insider, this happens to be http://www.wowinsider.com/rss.xml . Each site will different. Just copy this address – this is the RSS feed address.
4. Use this address in any program or website that can accept it! WoW Insider, or any other site, can easily be syndicated like this.
