RSS & ATOM FEED PARSING
What Is SimplePie?
SimplePie is a free PHP library for reading RSS and Atom feeds. Rather than a standalone app with its own dashboard, it's code your own PHP scripts call to pull in feeds and work with them. It handles the messy parts of feed parsing for you, including different feed formats, character encodings, and broken markup.
SimplePie caches feeds to reduce the load on your server and on the sites you're pulling from, and it gives you simple methods for grabbing titles, links, dates, authors, and media. It's also the feed parser built into WordPress, which uses SimplePie behind its RSS widget and feed functions.

Why Choose HostPapa for SimplePie Hosting?
HostPapa gives you a PHP setup that's ready for SimplePie. Our Web Hosting plans let you choose your PHP version in cPanel, include MySQL databases, and come with 400+ one-click apps through Softaculous. A FREE SSL certificate secures your site, and cPanel's file manager and cron jobs make it easy to manage your scripts and refresh your feed cache.
SimplePie is light, so a news aggregator or feed widget runs comfortably on our Web Hosting plans. If you're building a larger aggregator that pulls hundreds of feeds on a tight schedule, the shared plans' minimum cron interval of 10 to 30 minutes and their memory limits will set the pace. VPS Hosting gives you full control over scheduling, dedicated memory, and root access to add caching tools like Redis or Memcached, which SimplePie supports.
