<title>[channel title]</title>

<description>[channel description]</description>

<link>[channel link]</link>

<item>

<title>[item title]</title>

<description>[item description]</description>

<link>[item link]</link>

</item>

</channel>

</rss>

5.Replace [channel link] with your site url.

6.Replace [item title] with the title of the page you want to show up as feed .

Save the file with extension .rss or .xml (there are other extensions also , but for beginners it is best to keep it simple)
