I have a site that I post 2-4 2,000 word articles on each week. I do the typical stuff, social bookmarking, blog commenting, etc for each article. But it got me thinking about sites like http://www.pingomatic.com and http://www.autopinger.com/ I realize that I would need an RSS feed that includes all of my articles, for their service to read. How would I do this? I am used to hand-crafting XML, but I have no idea what format it should be in. Any advice?
You can turn any content into RSS. A quck search on Google and I found this for you http://www.allwebdesignresources.co...tools-converters-for-html-to-rss-conversions/
You can either ping with RSS, which would usually be a different service than Pingomatic or the like, but you can automatically ping your blog on a regular basis with a tool like BlogBuzzer
