since the nature of this article is to show you how to get
your Blogs Site Feed listed in Yahoo! and MSN, I have

Now, depending on where your Blog is hosted, whether its
through a free service like Blogger.com
http www.bookstoretoday.comor hosted on your websites server
you should have a Site Feed URL that has the .XML
extension.
This is your Site Feed URL .

control center.

This URL is intended for a RSS News Reader, so disregard
its appearance.
Once you find your Site Feed URL , copy and paste it into
Notepad because you will need it for the next steps coming
ahead.
Now, what you need to do is go and set-up an My Yahoo and
My MSN account.
I have provided the links for you below.
My Yahoo http my.yahoo.com
My MSN http msn.com
It should only take you about 15 or 20 minutes at the most.
If you already have accounts with My Yahoo and My MSN,
read on.
This is assuming you already have your accounts set up, so
your next step is to Login to your My Yahoo account.
When you login, you will be taken to your Yahoo page
immediately.
What you want to do next is go look under the Yahoo search
box to the left and click on the Add Content link.
This will bring you to a new page.
From there, over to the right by the Find button you will
see an Add RSS by URL link, click on it.

paste your Site Feed URL from Notepad into the web form
and click on the Add button.

Headlines.
Click on one of them, it should take you to your Blog, to
the desired Headline you chose.
Your My Yahoo page should Now have your Blogs Site Feed
Headlines listed at the bottom.
Scroll down to check. If you do not see them, it sometimes
takes up to 24 or 48 hours for them to appear, so just check
back later.

NEW content, it will Automatically update on your My Yahoo
page and everybody else pages who have subscribe to your
feed, plus, within 24 or 48 hours your feed will get Spidered

effort on your part.
