Usually a Webmaster will use a CMS to contain their content, these automatically generate RSS feeds, which makes life a lot easier. You're probably going to be wasting time if you don't have your content in a CMS. Smiling

Had a look around and found this on hotscripts.com and this article on generating RSS feeds.

Creating a feed from scratch can be a little tricky. I use a template system called TinyButStrong on my websites, and I wrote a post that shows an easy way to create RSS and Atom feeds using this template system.

However you decide to do it, make sure you validate your feed before you go live with it.

Hey, I just Stumbled upon a great resource that you can use: PHP Feed Generator

That looks like the best and easiest way to do it.
