Common RSS URL extensions

Common RSS URL extensions

I like blogs. I like RSS feeds. Often, blogs don't have an RSS feed link. Often, these blogs do have an RSS feed, thanks to whatever site generator they use.

Thus, I like to try and find the hidden feed. These are the URLs I usually put on the URL to try and find the feed.

For example, blog.alifeee.co.uk -> blog.alifeee.co.uk/feed.xml

/feed
/feed.xml
/rss
/rss.xml
/atom
/atom.xml
/index.xml
./feed
./feed.xml
./rss
./rss.xml
./atom
./atom.xml
./index.xml

Specific site builders

If you know what site generator is used, they usually have a default RSS feed URL. Here are some

  • Hugo - /index.xml
  • Squarespace - ?format=rss / rss.xml
