Yes, they do. In no particular order:

  • Do a View Source on the site’s frontpage. You might see some HTML for “application/atom+xml” or “application/rss+xml”. The URLs associated with those hrefs will be for the ATOM and RSS feeds.
    • If you search for one of the following in the HTML source you’ll probably run into the feeds:
      • rss
      • atom
      • feed
      • json
  • Look for a syndication page on the site. It should have links to the feeds.
  • You might see the RSS feed icon or the ATOM feed icon on the page.
  • Many CMSes (Wordpress in particular) automatically put them at /feed on the site.
