How to quickly generate a podcast only RSS feed |
I know somebody else has done this, and probably better, but when I needed to find it, I couldn’t easily locate it, so I whipped up a quick script to generate the code for an RSS feed for podcast only (enclosure support). Here’s all you need to do to use this:
STEP 1. Fill out the form located here
STEP 2. The code for the RSS file will be created. Save this code in a empty text file (using Notepad or whatever your favorite text editor is) as podcast.xml or whatever you want to call your podcast-only feed.
STEP 3. FTP in ASCII mode to your web hosting space — either free host or paid host. If you need virtual web hosting, then you can contact Cyberwurx and mention my name in the referrer field: TDavid and they will give you a special discount. Otherwise, there’s plenty of webspaace. If you need to add additional items to your podcast-only RSS feed then just copy over the item part and make a new ITEM section right above the last one.
STEP 4. Go to audio.weblogs.com/pingform.html and promote the feed so it gets listed for podcasters to begin receiving the feed.
