RSS Feeds - Feature Guide
What is RSS?
RSS stands for Really Simple Syndication and is a way to share your stores' products, articles, pages, brands etc., to other places around the web.
RSS feeds allow you to share your content without having to do it manually yourself. Once you add the link to the desired location, the content, products, videos, etc., that you add to your store and blog will update and show up daily.
RSS Feeds are a great way to build backlinks and generate traffic to your store.
Where to find RSS Feeds in your dashboard
Open your store admin at https://your-store-domain/admin. This is a separate site from your account at my.freshstore.com. Then go to Traffic > RSS Feeds in the left menu.
Don't see it? Click Traffic to open the Traffic Overview. It has a tile for every Traffic page, RSS Feeds included.
From this page, you can find links to all the RSS feeds available for your store.
Product feed for shopping catalogues
Your store also has a product feed in the Google Merchant format:
https://your-store-domain/feed/google-merchant-products.rss
It lists your products with their price, image, brand and a link to the product page on your store. Meta Commerce Manager can read it as a scheduled data feed for a Facebook catalogue.
Google Merchant Center: Google does not allow affiliate links in Google Shopping, except through a Comparison Shopping Service (CSS) in a CSS programme country. Products on your store link to merchants through your affiliate links, so Google Merchant Center is not a fit for them. Read Google's Merchant Center guidelines before you add the feed there.
To get the link, open Traffic > RSS Feeds and expand Product Catalog Feed (Google Merchant / Facebook). Click Copy Link to copy it, or Open Feed to view it. Then add the link as a scheduled data feed in Meta Commerce Manager under Catalog > Data sources. The feed lists every enabled product that has a price.
Dynamic RSS Feeds
You can also find an RSS feed for each Product Category and Article Category in your store.
To access the RSS Feed link, go to edit the relevant category in your store dashboard and click the "Traffic" tab.
