    Hello there! I’m curious about what you’re trying to accomplish with your RSS Links widget.

    What that link does is connect to the actual feed of your site. When I click on it, I see:

    Find Your RSS Feed

    That wacky looking text is your feed. When viewed through an RSS reader by one of your followers, it won’t look so crazy. In fact, the ‘gobbledy-goop’ you’re seeing, will look like this:

    Here’s some more info about what feeds are:

    Find Your RSS Feed

    As you have your Follow link up and running, you don’t actually need anything else for people to subscribe to your Feed. Unless you have visitors who your think will need to view your Feed link, you can delete it.

    I hope this clears things up. Let me know if you any questions at all! Happy blogging :)
