I want to make a podcast, but it says this.
   1.  Creating your first episode, which can be an audio recording, video, or even a text document. Supported file formats include .m4a, .mp3, .mov, .mp4, .m4v, and .pdf.
   2. Posting your episode file(s) on a server with a publicly accessible URL.
   3. Creating an RSS feed (an XML file) that:
          * conforms to the RSS 2.0 specification
          * includes the recommended iTunes RSS tags,
          * contains pointers to your episode.
   4. Posting the RSS file on a server.
   5. Submit the URL for your RSS feed to iTunes.
Now, I went to feedforall and tried it, but I could not figure out how to post the feed on a server, (or make it for that matter). I need a step-by-step instruction on how to do this from level one. Can anyone help? I just want to do audio for now, and I have the audio on my computer. I just need to make it into an rss feed. How is this done?
How do you make an rss feed and post in on a server with a url so that the url can be used as a podcast?
You can use software to create an iTunes compatible podcast. The software will automatically encode the podcast feed for you. I would suggest FeedForAll, there is a free download at http://www.feedforall.com (there is both a Windows and a Mac version). 
There is a tutorial that will walk you through setting up an iTunes compatible podcast - http://www.feedforall.com/itunes-tutoria...
Once you make it, you must FTP the file up to your server then submit the URL of the feed to iTunes.
Goodluck!
