RSS (most commonly translated as "Really Simple Syndication" but sometimes "Rich Site Summary") is a family of web feed formats used to publish frequently updated works—such as blog entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format. An RSS document (which is called a "feed", "web feed", or "channel") includes full or summarized text, plus metadata such as publishing dates and authorship. Web feeds benefit publishers by letting them syndicate content automatically. They benefit readers who want to subscribe to timely updates from favored websites or to aggregate feeds from many sites into one place. RSS feeds can be read using software called an "RSS reader", "feed reader", or "aggregator", which can be web-based, desktop-based, or mobile-device-based. A standardized XML file format allows the information to be published once and viewed by many different programs. The user subscribes to a feed by entering into the reader the feed's URI or by clicking an RSS icon in a browser that initiates the subscription process. The RSS reader checks the user's subscribed feeds regularly for new work, downloads any updates that it finds, and provides a user interface to monitor and read the feeds.

RSS formats are specified using XML, a generic specification for the creation of data formats. Although RSS formats have evolved since March 1999, the RSS icon ("") first gained widespread use between 2005 and 2006.

A. WordPress.com Stats doesn't seem to support counting feed subscribers. If you're running WordPress on your own host, there is a plugin called Feed Statistics.

Is submitting my blog RSS Feed to a bunch of different RSS networks a good form of SEO?
Q. Pardon me if my wording is off...I'm new to this RSS stuff... I update my blog every couple of days, and I believe I have quality content, and I also use some of my keyterms in there, including the title

A. Hey Jerry, that sure is a good way. Each time, your new post will create an amount of new incoming links, which will increase your PR, and it will make you be found more easy. So, more visitors, which will then in turn also link to your website (albeit only a very small part, but all bits help). So, yes, keep on doing that!
