RSS stands for “Really Simple Syndication”. Simply explained, it makes the posts on your WordPress website available in the form of an RSS feed, which can be read by another website.
It is a way of making the content of your posts available for sharing by others.
That said, you shouldn’t be getting error s such as this. How are you creating your RSS feed? With a plugin, or is it a function built into your WordPress theme?

I think it is a function built into my WordPress theme, because I searched RSS in my plugins and nothing came up.
If you look at the source code of your site, you will see that there are spam links at the very top. You’ll need to clean those up.
Check your header.php and look above the <html dir="ltr" lang="en-US">
Make sure that you’re WordPress version, theme, plugins are all up to date.

I was able to open the source code through my webpage and checked that my WordPress version and plugins all up to date, but I am not quite sure how to clean the source code spam links (I cleared the spam comments).
For the header.php in my Editor I was unable to find the <html dir=”ltr” lang =”en-US” but I found <html <?php language_attributes() instead.
