Just a heads up, it's great to have an RSS feed, but readers won't automatically detect that you have one. I see you already have a link to your RSS feed so if you put this

  <a rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" href="/rss.xml">RSS</a>
That then tells all RSS readers that the link is a feed, and the reader will then detect this. Then say if I use Feedly and want to subscribe to your site, I can link to your homepage and it will automatically detect your feed.

You can also use a meta tag instead if you'd prefer not to display a link. More information can be found over MDN[0] and I also created a blog post on the 5 most important things all blogs should do.[1]

D'oh. I thought I had already done this. Thanks for letting me know.
