Feed validates, has a dedicated tag and comments open.

We need to talk about the content though. Your feed currently contains A LOT of content that is primarily focused at your clients (I guess it is the correct term here) (e.g. the complete "Getting started on Stanford Sites" series) or is general site builder info not related to Drupal specifically ("Imagery 101" series).

Posts like https://swsblog.stanford.edu/blog/tips-selecting-drupal-vendor on the other hand are good Planet material. I would like you to go through your feed and carefully evaluate which posts really should go out to a broader audience beyond your specific peers. For series you publish I recommend writing a roundup post detailing what the series was about and linking to the individual posts (if the series in itself is good material for the Planet).

OK, thanks for the feedback. I tried to err on the side of too much, rather than too little, content to evaluate.

I went through and did some pruning in the XML feed: https://swsblog.stanford.edu/drupal-planet-feed.xml

Regarding the "Getting Started on Sites" series, we run a Drupal SAAS platform for the university ("Stanford Sites") and so that content is aimed at Drupal site builders getting started using that service. However, posts like how to create an image style are useful to a broader Drupal audience, IMO. Anyhow, your call.

Thanks!
