What you need
It's easy - you just need a live RSS feed containing the content of your existing expedition site. RSS feeds are a common feature of blogs and websites today. You can set up a feed just for xpdnews, or use one you have already. More about RSS feeds
How it works
You write updates for your site, as usual. That's all you have to do. Once selected for inclusion on xpdnews, our server will automatically retrieve your updates via your site's RSS feed. Your updates are then republished on xpdnews. FAQ
Protecting your copyright
It's important to know your rights. xpdnews only includes sites which have given express permission to do so. The objective is to be a booster for expedition sites, not to rip them off. More in FAQ
When will it happen?
Applications are now open for inclusion on xpdnews when it launches later in 2009. FAQ
