How do you put an RSS Feed on a homepage?
What is the best and easy way to do it?
It's a little difficult to give you a detailed rundown on how to do it as you don't have a link of your blog anywhere so I can't see what theme your using.
But here's a heads up that will point you in the right direction!
Sign up for a Google Account if you don't already have one and go to the Feed Burner Website and effectively 'Burn' a Feeburner Feed for your blog.
You will then have to change your wordpress theme's default RSS Feed with Feed Burners feed.
In most cases you can do this by downloading a Feed Burner Plugin and uploading it to your plugin folder in wordpress and then activating the plugin.
Once you have activated the plugin then you have to go to 'Settings' in Dashboard of your wordpress installation and go to 'Feed Burner' and enter your Feed Burner address in the space provided.
Then click on the save button and your done!
But like I said, your wordpress theme might be different to most and since I can't see it to suss it out it's a bit hard to help you.
Anyway good luck and let me know how you go!

What kind of home page are we talking about here? are you wanting to create one or just import one from another site?
I got no blog at all, but a website and want to create one! Does that what Bluefox mentioned above still apply?

ok so you are wanting to create a rss for your website then correct?

this will work better since you do not have a blog. I believe this is what you are looking for.

It sounds like you want to display an RSS feed within your HTML website. The easiest/best way to do this is to use RSS2HTML a free PHP script. This means that you can retain the complete control of the HTML layout (using templates) and make it match your existing design. Additionally using PHP rather than JavaScript will mean that search engine spiders can "spider" the contents of the RSS feeds.
Additional details and a free rss2html download is available at: http://www.feedforall.com/more-php.htm

Goodluck!
I like to display a rss button on my homepage to enable visitors to subscribe to my feeds.
This is all.
I think I understand. If your using Wordpress, in your dashboard click on "appearance" then "widgets". Select the "rss" widget.
Next enter http://yoursite.com/feed/ inside of the widget information entry box.
That should do it.

I got a website not a blog.
I would like to use RSS2HTML PHP as Dan Richards recommended, but it seems to be complicated. I wish I would know the exact steps how to proceed.
How can I use feedburner in that respect? Has it anything to do with this matter at all?
I have plenty of time to sort this out as I have very low traffic.
