How do I automate monitoring of blogs and RSS feeds without manual checks?▼

Automating blog monitoring involves scanning RSS and Atom feeds for new content and categorizing articles as read or unread. This process eliminates manual checks by automatically discovering feeds from blog homepages and fetching updates.

Can I bulk import RSS feeds from readers like Feedly or Inoreader?▼

You can bulk import RSS feeds from readers like Feedly or Inoreader using OPML import. This allows you to quickly migrate and monitor a large number of existing content sources automatically.

What happens if an RSS or Atom feed fails to load?▼

When an RSS or Atom feed fails, HTML scraping acts as a fallback method to extract content directly from the blog. This ensures continued monitoring even if the standard feed is broken or unsupported.
