Problems with RSS feed updates and connection with Aweber
-
I have been using my RSS feed https://juliedawnfox.com/feed/ with Aweber to send broadcast messages to my email subscribers whenever I publish a new post. Originally, these emails would go out within an hour or so of publication. Over the last few months, the delay has been getting longer and has been up to 24 hours on several occasions.
I contacted Aweber who couldn’t see a problem their end and asked me to contact my hosting service, GoDaddy, who also say they see no issues. Aweber reported a delay in the Build date of my RSS feed, telling me that this was several hours behind and this was causing the problem.
I published a post last night, Published on: Nov 12, 2014 @ 21:54, which shows on my feed just a few minutes later:
<lastBuildDate>Wed, 12 Nov 2014 22:05:19 +0000</lastBuildDate>
<language>en-US</language>
<sy:updatePeriod>hourly</sy:updatePeriod>
<sy:updateFrequency>1</sy:updateFrequency>

<link>https://juliedawnfox.com/2014/11/12/monsaraz/</link>The email to my WordPress subscribers went out immediately. Aweber say they can’t see this “When I reviewed your RSS Feed half an hour ago, that post was not on your feed in any way, which is why it was not picked up. There is a disconnect between the RSS Feed and the posts on your blog.”
Can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to fix it? In VERY simple terms, please, as I know nothing about code.
