Adding a News Feed Page to You Website

If you add news feed to a WordPress website, it'll be one of the smartest ways to update your content on a daily basis. Let's see how awesome and easy it is to add news feed to WordPress website in under 5 minutes!

So what exactly is a news feed?

Business Dictionary defines news feed as:

"A continuous transmission of data, consisting of news updates, to websites through a syndicated news service provider. Subscribers receive the news feed, also known as a web feed, as summaries or links that refer the user back to the original news source."

In layman terms, a news feed is an aggregation of web content, where users can read summaries that contain links to the original piece of content. Often the best news feeds are visually appealing with an image and interesting commentary that causes readers to engage with it.

The basic premise of a news feed is that instead of visiting multiple web pages to check for new content, a user can quickly glance through all of his/her favorite content at once and then decide which links to follow to read the complete content. Internet users can end up saving a lot of their browsing time and effort by subscribing to a news feed.

HOW TO ADD NEWS FEED TO A WORDPRESS WEBSITE

A news feed not only helps save time and effort for the reader, but it also saves time for the website owner too. If you're a business owner, marketer, blogger, freelancer or professional (lawyer, chef, doctor, etc.) and run a website, you likely wish you could update your content more frequently.

What if you could curate and add news feed from different sources?

You likely already keep up with the very latest news, industry updates, opinion pieces, videos, etc. within your industry. Imagine handpicking the best articles and web content around the web and turning those web links into a visual collection that you can embed on your WordPress website or blog.
