I give a example include channel list of elements, each one has a simple description of an example, should appear and a more detailed description of the location of the link.
Name: title
Description: The channel's name. It shows people how to access your service. If you have an RSS file with your HTML content of the same site, your title element values should be the same as the title of your web site.
Example: GoUpstate.com theNewsHeadline.

The below is an optional channel element of the list.
Name: language
Description: The channel language. For example, on a Web site that allows aggregation of all the Italian sites to the appropriate group. For this element, the value that can be used, see the Netscape offerList. Or you can refer to the W3C-defined List.
Example: en-us.

There are also some tag are used in RSS 2.0.
# <image> is an optional sub-elements <channel>, which itself contains three required and three optional sub-elements.
# <url> is a GIF, JPEG, or PNG image file URL link address of the image representing the entire channel.
# <title> used to describe the above image, when the channel when displayed in the HTML for the HTML language <img> the alt attribute.
# <link> is to connect the site url, when the display channels, the image of the connection point to the site. (In practice, <title> and <link> should <title> and <link> channels have the same value).

All the best.
