What is a Syndication News Feed?

Syndication Feed is a mean for content and media publishers to reach a wider audience easily. It allows you to receive information directly without the going from site to site.

Essentially, a feed is a function that allows “Feed Readers” to access multiple sites automatically looking for new content and then posting the information about new content and updates to another site, mobile app or desktop software at the office.

Feeds provide a way for users to keep up with the latest news, events, package and delivery status information posted on different sites such as news sites, music sites, content sites (i.e. social networks), torrent indexers and podcasts in one spot.
