RSS Feed Automation

This tag is the broadest, most general tag on the blog for anything related to using an RSS or Atom feed to automatically trigger social media posts through PostRSS. It covers the foundational concept that underlies the entire platform: a feed updates automatically whenever new content is published on a website, and PostRSS's background feed-check (every 5 minutes on standard plans, every 1 minute on Enterprise) detects that update and formats a corresponding post for each connected Target. Articles under this tag range from beginner explanations of what RSS is, to plan comparisons, to platform-specific setup guides — it functions as a hub tag rather than covering one narrow topic. Because of its breadth, this is one of the most heavily used tags on the blog. Start here if you're new to the concept of feed-based automation generally, before narrowing into a specific platform or feature tag.
