How to find the RSS feed for any website
Most sites still have one, hidden or not. Try the common addresses, check the page source, or let a finder run every check for you.
Most sites still have a feed, even when nothing on the page says so.
Try the usual paths
Take the site’s address and try each of these until one opens.
https://example.com/feed
https://example.com/rss
https://example.com/feed.xml
https://example.com/atom.xmlWhen one opens, you’ve found it. It’s a list of recent posts, shown raw or tidy depending on your browser.
WordPress and Substack keep theirs at /feed, Ghost at /rss/. If you know what the site runs, the platform guides have the exact address. WordPress can also follow a single tag. example.com/tag/news/feed gives you just the posts tagged news.
Ask the page itself
Every page with a feed declares it in its HTML.
- Right-click the page and choose View Page Source
- Search the source for
rss(Ctrl+F or Cmd+F) - Find a line like this.
<link
rel="alternate"
type="application/rss+xml"
href="https://example.com/feed"
/>The href is the feed’s address. If your browser buries the source view, skip to the feed finder.
Let a finder do it
The feed finder runs all of this for you. Paste a site’s address and it lists every feed it finds. No account needed.
In Glanced, Discover does the same. Paste a feed’s own address and it subscribes right away.
Or browse with the extension
The browser extension finds feeds on the page you’re visiting. No account needed. Copy a feed’s address, or click Subscribe and Glanced takes it from there.
When there’s no feed at all
Some sites turned theirs off. If it has a newsletter, a podcast, or a YouTube channel, follow that instead. Those all have feeds.
To follow the site, paste its address into Discover and Glanced finds the feed.
