How To Find the RSS Feed for Your Blogger Blog

by Dave Saunders on January 26, 2009

I’ve been asked how to find the RSS feed for Blogger a few times now. It’s a handy thing to know because with the RSS feed address, you can link Facebook notes and Blogger content which allows you to connect your content to a larger audience. Finding the RSS feed address in Blogger is a little frustrating. I clicked around settings for a while to find it myself. It’s not exactly something that everyone needs or wants to know, but when you do it would be really nice if it was obvious and immediately available. The ATOM URL used to be listed there. Finally I poked around in the help files and discovered how to construct the URL in Blogger to get the RSS feed for my blog.

To find out how to get the RSS code for Blogger yourself, just watch the video below and you’ll see how to do it for your own blog.

According to Google / Blogger, here are the special addresses they’ve provided for blog users.

Full site feed:

  • Atom 1.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
  • RSS 2.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss

Comments-only feed:

  • Atom 1.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default
  • RSS 2.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=rss

Label-specific site feed:

  • Atom 1.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default/-/labelname
  • RSS 2.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=rss/-/labelname

Individual post comment feed:

  • Atom 1.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/postId/comments/default
  • RSS 2.0: http://blogname.blogspot.com/feeds/postId/comments/default?alt=rss

RSS feeds from Blogger seem to provide clean code. This is a good thing too because I don’t know of any clean RSS widget for Blogger.

    your post helped me get the html code, but then my yolasite wouldn't accept it for some reason. but thank you anyways… it's been a pain trying to get a Rss feed for blogger, and apparently will continue to be for a slight time still.

    Now blogspot provides an Atom feed. Append /atom.xml to the end of your Blogspot URL to get your Atom feed. For example my blog – http://alanwattsbooks.blogspot.com/ has an Atom feed at http://alanwattsbooks.blogspot.com/atom.xml

    Alternate method -

    Go to blog – right click – choose view page source – CTRL-F – search for “RSS” – this will find the link that you can right click to copy and the paste in browser.

    Thaks for the info – it helped me confirm that the above method did produce the right address.

    Ok. It’s 3:30 and I’m cranky. I’ve tried everything and nothing seems to work. When I add /feeds/posts/default?alt=rss to my blogspot all I get is pages of symbols and letters. I’m trying to bring my blogspot into my new website. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks

    thankyou!

  • lari18br.ca

    Hey guys, so if you haven’t gotten an answer yet, or haven’t found it, I asked around and apparently the reason I was getting all these codes was because I was using google chrome, try using firefox or internet explorer, if you were using chrome. I tried and am now using firefox and the feed page appears just fine. Good luck!
