# Add a source

> Follow any RSS feed, website, topic or source from the catalog: what each option on the Add source screen does.

Hushread Docs, Sources. Canonical: https://hushread.com/docs/add-a-source

Open the menu (☰) and tap **+** next to **Feeds**. You can also open **Discover** and tap the search tile.

In the box (**Keyword, website, or RSS link**), type any of these:

- **A keyword**, like *astronomy*. Matching sources from Hushread's catalog appear under **Sources**. Tap one to preview it.
- **A website**, like *theverge.com*, or **an RSS link**. Tap **Add from link**.

If you type a single word that could also be a website, Hushread asks which you meant: **Add the website X.com** to follow that site, or **Track "X" on the internet** to [follow the topic](/docs/follow-a-topic) from any outlet.

## What happens with a link

- **The site has a feed:** you'll see **Preview** with the feed's latest posts. Tap **Add feed**. If you already follow it, it says **Already following**.
- **The site has no feed:** Hushread offers **Follow this page** (or **Add this website**). It checks the page regularly and turns new articles into feed items for you. It may also show **Suggested feeds for** that domain.
- **Nothing found:** you'll see *We couldn't find a feed or articles there.* You can still track the name as a topic instead.

Links to subreddits, YouTube channels and Facebook pages work too; see [Reddit, YouTube and Facebook](/docs/reddit-youtube-and-facebook).

## Limits and alerts

- The free plan allows 5 sources. Adding a sixth shows the upgrade screen; see [Plans and billing](/docs/plans-and-billing).
- New sources don't send notifications by default. After you add your first source, Hushread asks **Want alerts for this source?**. See [Notifications](/docs/notifications).
