So many sites and apps are attempting to read your feed, but some are pickier than others and will struggle to find them readable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This leaves your RSS feed out in the dust, skipped by certain sites &#8212; and untouched by some RSS feed readers. When your feed isn\u2019t showing up in searches, it can hurt all the goals you\u2019re working toward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem is if errors creep in, you may not even know it. And if you do happen to know where an error is, you may not know how to fix it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why RSS feed validators are so helpful. They test your RSS feed, check it for errors, and highlight those errors if they find any. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This helps you troubleshoot and fix errors so that your feed can get back to doing what it does best &#8212; bringing your amazing <a href=\"https:\/\/rss.com\/blog\/podcasters-share-tips-building-audience\/\">content to your engaged and waiting audience<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Are you looking for information on how to create a RSS feed for your podcast?<\/strong> If so, check out this post on our blog.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/rss.com\/blog\/how-to-create-an-rss-feed-for-a-podcast\/\">How to Create an RSS Feed for a Podcast<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-free-rss-feed-validators\">Free RSS Feed Validators<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Use this list of free RSS validators to keep your feed code clean, and your RSS feed available to your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/validator.livewire.io\/\">Livewire Podcast Validator<\/a>: The Livewire Podcast Validator supports <a href=\"https:\/\/help.rss.com\/en\/support\/solutions\/articles\/44002449472-what-is-podcasting-2-0-\">Podcasting 2.0 Tags<\/a>.
