Need help creating Amazon Author Page

aruna · Jan 27, 2012

Hi there! Help needed with the following problem:
I just joined Amazon Author central and created an Author Page.

When trying to add my blog, I got this eroor notice:

Author Central supports all versions of RSS and Atom blog feeds. Posts created before you add this feed will not be imported. If you want previous posts to appear on the Author Page, please re-post them on your home blog.

Example RSS feed URLs:

http://www.omnivoracious.com/atom.xml
http://www.aldenteblog.com/rss.xml
http://www.chordstrike.com/index.rdf

And I have no idea how to create a link with those suffixes. My blog is on blogger. What's my suffix? I tried googling for an answer but they all kind of assume you know what your RSS feed URL already.

Hi Aruna,

Use this link and it will work:
http://sonsofgods.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss

That's your blog's RSS feed.

Edit: I obtained the info for your link from this page, because Blogger have an odd format for their feed URLS. I've tested the link in Google Reader and it all looks like it should work fine.

That's mostly a stupid way of telling you what the RSS feed link looks like (you've got the correct link now) and to make sure you realize only new posts will show on your Amazon author page, that is, posts you publish after creating the Amazon page.
