+
+In your `header.html` template, you can specify your RSS feed in your `<head></head>` tag like this:
+
+~~~html
+{{ if .RSSlink }}
+ <link href="{{ .RSSlink }}" rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="{{ .Site.Title }}" />
+ <link href="{{ .RSSlink }}" rel="feed" type="application/rss+xml" title="{{ .Site.Title }}" />
+{{ end }}

+The `.RSSlink` will render the appropriate RSS feed URL for the section, whether it's everything, posts in a section, or a taxonomy.

+**N.b.**, if you reference your RSS link, be sure to specify the mime type with `type="application/rss+xml"`.
