Roccia @Tile_Mart’s @BenOHanlon Shares His Hack: Get Feedly in RitePush
Get Feedly in your RitePush dashboard now — several weeks before RitePush officially integrates!
We’ll be adding Feedly integration this Spring but for now, a big thank-you to Ben O’Hanlon of Roccia, for this tutorial on why and how he uses Feedly in the RitePush dashboard. You can find his 3-minute tutorial in our Tutorials playlist in Youtube and there are many more written tutorials in our Help Directory.
RitePush allows you to import content from Twitter word/words, hashtag/hashtags, user streams and more, as well as from Pocket, Evernote, and .rss. Feedly integration is in the works. Our friend Ben O’Hanlon of Roccia provides an easy way to get a .rss mash-up from Feedly in RitePush right now.
The problem — Feedly collections bring together large numbers of websites and blogs to see updates in one news feed. RitePush allows the user to automate scheduling from one RSS source only. For a Feedly user this is impractical because they’re likely to have a large number of sources.
The work-around — RitePush will bring up 25 updates from a RSS feed. For websites or blogs that update regularly it’s fine to have that as one source. In instances where a website or blog doesn’t update enough to pull 25 new posts into RitePush we can combine those into one RSS feed. Here is how…
- Go to Feedly.com and open up your collection. You will be able to see the number of updates beside each blog/website.
- Click on feeds which don’t have a large number of udpates and open them in a new tab. Start with approx 3–5.
- Open up http://chimpfeedr.com. Add the URL of each source into ‘Feed the Chimp’ and click ‘add feed’. Add them all and then click ‘Chomp Chomp.’
- You’ll then be asked to give your feed a name (name the sources you’ve added).
- You will now be given a URL which is a RSS feed for all of those sources.
- You can now go to and ‘Create Formula’ (rss) and you’ll have 3–5 websites/blogs in one source and be able to automate from it regularly.
Here’s Ben’s video tutorial:
As you’ll see in Tweets from @Roccia, they are using their CTA header on pages shared from RitePush, the RiteTag browser extension and Automation to build their email list.
