Use a "Headline" Feed as a summary of postings on your other feeds

If you offer multiple feeds on your website, you may find a Headline feed as an attractive benefit to those wishing to keep track of your news. Instead of subscribing to each of the feeds, or setting up alerts to each of the feeds, they can subscribe to the Headline feed and be notified of postings to any and all of your site feeds, as you choose. When they click an item on the Headline feed, they are presented the feed that has that posting, with of course all the previous postings to that feed.

The account owner sets up a feed to be a Headline feed. Then when one posts to any other feed in that account, one can specify that the item also be posted on the Headline feed. Actually, only the title is posted on the Headline feed, and is presented as a link that when clicked provides the complete posting. Thus the Headline feed is a clickable index of postings onto other feeds in that account.

An example of perfect use of a Headline feed is shown at "Gold Mountain HOA" website. Many feeds are provided on this homeowners association website to cover the numerous topics of the association. A single feed, called "Recent Postings" in this case, includes items posted elsewhere that the site administrator has decided are appropriate for that Recent Postings feed.
