Syndicate Your Blog on Your Website

Success!
"Success!"

Woohoo! I am now re-syndicating all of my blog posts here on the Simply Fearless Solopreneurs Blog onto a dedicated page on my personal blog! I've been wanting to integrate the 2 blogs for awhile now, but have also wanted to keep the content separate because not all of my readers at Simply Fearless are solopreneurs. I've played around with a couple of options and even asked my web developer who wasn't sure how to do it.

So now every time I post here, the entire article including photos are automatically published on a page on my other blog. The really cool thing about this is that you can do this with your website too! Meaning that you can re-syndicate your own blog articles on your website without spending any additional time! It's like you push the "publish" button on your blog and it publishes it to your blog and your website simultaneously. Oh this so cool because now your website visitors don't even have to leave your site to view your blog content.

Here's how to do it:
  1. Sign up for a free account at rapidfeeds
  2. Enter the Blog / Feed URL in the "Start Resyndicating Now!"box
  3. Click on "Configure" to choose your settings (I used a pre-designed template)
  4. Click on "Preview" to check it out - make any necessary changes by clicking "Configure" again
  5. Click on "Get code"
  6. Select your language (I used JavaScript)
  7. Copy & paste the code wherever you want to re-syndicate your feed!
To check out how I've used it on my site click here. As you will see I have added a short message at the top of the page letting people know that they can click through to post their comments, questions, and insights.

A special thank you to Library Clips for providing the info about rapidfeeds who is powering my syndication free of charge!
