How does one create an XML shopping feed for an ecommerce site?

I have a client with a shopping cart in an older version of Marketlive. It does not have any shopping feed functionality built into it.

My goal is to create a feed to crawl the site and submit the store's products to Froogle, Yahoo Shopping, and the comparison engines.

This is my first time doing a project like this. What is the best course of action to take? Need some guidance.

Thank you.

Each feed is different as each shopping site has their own format for feeds. You will need to go to each site and find out what format they are expecting and create each feed separately.
