Back to: How to Use Yoast SEO
Review our video titled, “What is RSS?” to refresh your memory about what RSS is and how it works.
RSS enables folks to easily stay up to date with the latest content on your site by subscribing to your RSS feed in a dedicated program called a “feed reader.”
Unfortunately, RSS can also be used by shady individuals to “scrape” content from your site — or, automatically copy it from your RSS feed and then republish it on their own site without your permission.
This video demonstrates how to properly configure the RSS settings in the Yoast SEO plugin for WordPress to protect your RSS content and ensure you receive credit for your content, no matter where it may be shared.
