FeedYes.com no longer free

Last month I received an email as a registered user of FeedYes.com, one of the first RSS Feed-creation tools I liked.  Seems they’re no longer offering any free options.

From the email:

FeedYES Update

FeedYES increases servers and support, becomes paid service

Last month, FeedYES was bought by a new owner.
FeedYES has grown over 500% over the last 12 months, and growth
is still continuing. As new owners,
we have increased server capacity and support. This in order to give full support to our
growing group of paid users.

Paid service only

In order to cope with costs associated with
these changes, FeedYES will become a paid service only.
The yearly costs will be US$29,95.
You will only be billed if you sign up for FeedYES
premium: sign up today or read more
about FeedYES premium
. This change will be effective on december 21st. If you do
not want interruptions in your service, please make sure you sign up for FeedYES premium
before december 20th, 2008.

What will happen if I do not sign up for the paid service?

If you do not
become a paid user of our service, you do not have to do anything. Your feeds
will remain in our database, so you can always upgrade at a later moment. And:
you can still access your account. However, your feeds will not be fully
displayed anymore until you upgrade.

How to delete your account on FeedYES

If you do not use FeedYES anymore, and want to delete your account, simply
reply to this email with the word “Delete account” in the message subject.
Your account will automatically be deleted.

    Stumbled upon your blog. Looks good! Btw, I was using FeedYes before, but now I use Feedity ( http://feedity.com ) to create RSS custom feeds. Its free, much easier to use, and produces better results! Try it out sometime. Chao 🙂

  2. thank you very much
    I did not know of feedity
    RSS feeds have been erratic for me – even on WordPress blogs
    Its supposed to work
    I follow working examples and the results were inconsistent
    The feedity service seems to work like a charm
    I gasped at how easily and well it worked
    thanks again
