Two of the most popular RSS aggregators/readers to search for updated content on a website are shown below.
| Name | Icon | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Feedly |  |
After Google Reader shut down in 2013, Feedly has been the RSS aggregator/reader trusted by most users. This is due to its simplicity and flexibility, in particular after the recent inclusion of a RSS feed organizer, both in its free version and in its premium version. This is a web-based application, so it must be used through an Internet browser. In mobile devices, the RSS reader is accessed through an application that is available for iOS, Android and Windows platforms.

| QuiteRSS |  |
Unlike Feedly, QuiteRSS is a software-based RSS reader. This is an open source application that is free for Windows, Linux and MacOS. QuiteRSS is very simple to use and offers the main basic functions for users who are not familiar with such applications. Nevertheless, it also offers several advanced options for more experienced users.
