These are usually excellent.

Looking for a simple implementation and have start to try to use Superfeedr for this purpose.

So how do I ping superfeedr through a HTTP POST request?

Superfeedr has similar documentation which you can find through Google. Is there a particular problem it is giving you?

What code have you tried?

Pinging to the superfeedr hub.

What do I do with this code?

# This is an example with curl. Most of languages include similar HTTP libraries.
# The -D- param logs the response and headers.

$ curl -X POST http://<your-hub-name>.superfeedr.com -d"hub.mode=publish" -d"hub.url=http://<a-feed-url>" -D-

# Expected Response
HTTP/1.1 204 No Content
Server: nginx/0.7.62
Date: Sun, 04 Apr 2010 13:11:38 GMT
Connection: keep-alive
Status: 204 No Content
X-Runtime: 0

I have made changes to <your-hub-name> and <a-feed-url>. I have placed the code in a file as a .sh file

What is the output, surely it gives an error?

I would make a request with a curl library in PHP, Python, Ruby or some language. Yep they have lots of wrappers available and their documentation looks quite good.

I am completely confused by this.

I put the following into my RSS XML file

[HTML]<link rel="hub" href="http://<myfeed>.superfeedr.com/&quot; xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom&quot; />
<link rel="self" href="http://www.myurl.com/rss.xml&quot; xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom&quot; />[/HTML]

The ping code doesn't do anything, as I know I haven't done any scripting for it, which I assume is the part I am missing.

Superfeedr is now managing 1 feed and 1 subscription.
