Blogger RSS feeds

You know, it really annoys me that blogger.com makes it incredibly difficult to find the RSS feed URL if you want to use RSS instead of Atom. I also find it annoying that they basically want you to use Feedburner. So, I'm posting the help file here that discusses what the exact URLs are because I always have to search to find this information. Now it'll be in this blog.

Blogger Feed URLs

After configuring the settings of your site feed, your blog is now ready to be syndicated to the world! Simply enter one of the following URLs into your favorite feed reader, where your blog's content will be delivered and updated automatically.

Note: Be sure to substitute in the correct blog address for blogname and the label you're interested in for labelname. Site feeds do not work with private of FTP-hosted blogs.

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

  • Individual post comment feed:

Note: You can find the postId of an individual post from the Posting | Edit Posts tab. Simply mouseover the 'Edit' link next to a particular post, and that postId will be displayed in your browser's status bar.
