WebException was caught When Consuming RSS Feed on ASP.net - asp.net

Question

I want to consume my blog's RSS feed from other asp.net site. I can't get rss data. I try different methods (like HttpWebRequest) for consuming RSS feed but I always get same error.
WebException was caught.
The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred during an import operation.
What was the problem ?
feed address: http://blog.melihmucuk.com/feed/
I need post title, link and posted date.
for example :
Try
Dim reader As XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader("http://blog.melihmucuk.com/feed/")
Dim ds As DataSet = New DataSet()
ds.ReadXml(reader) // incorrect line
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
I think, that's a simple task, but I don't know what is the problem.
Also I try this:
Try
Dim title As String
Dim link As String
Dim description As String
Dim reader = XmlReader.Create("http://blog.melihmucuk.com/feed/")//incorrect line
Dim feed = SyndicationFeed.Load(reader)
For Each item In feed.Items
title = item.Title.Text
link = item.Links(0).Uri.ToString
Next
HyperLink1.Text = title
HyperLink1.NavigateUrl = link
Label1.Text = description
Catch ex As Exception
End Try

Try this out:-
Imports System.Web
Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO
Public Class Reader
Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
Try
Dim rssFeed = New Uri("http://blog.melihmucuk.com/feed/")
Dim request As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create(rssFeed)
Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse()
Using reader As New StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream())
Dim xdoc As XDocument = New XDocument()
xdoc = XDocument.Load(reader)
'Read the nodes and display as per your requirement.
End Using
Catch ex As Exception
End Try
End Sub
End Class
Also add this block in your web.config file:-
<configuration>
<system.net>
<defaultProxy useDefaultCredentials="true">
<proxy usesystemdefault="true"/>
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>
</configuration>
