Click on the "New Feed" button to create a new RSS feed. This will open up a wizard that takes you through the steps to create a new RSS feed.

DreamFeeder allows you to create the feed entries manually or attach them to existing pages on your Web site. Each method has advantages.

Creating the feed content manually allows you to create a feed that promotes and highlights your content. You won't have to worry about whether the content is showing up correctly or if there are things that shouldn't appear in your RSS, because only what you enter will be in the RSS.

Creating the feed by attaching it to pages of your site makes the feed more automated. Then every time you change something on your site, you can click on the "Process Feed" option to add the changes to your RSS. This makes your site more like a blog.
