Make Subscription To Your Content And Comments Easy And Trackable

Make Subscription To Your Content And Comments Easy And Trackable

RSS is very popular and more  people using it. I prefer to scan my subscriptions for blogs I like as opposed to visiting each site individually. Your Wordpress default installation provides plenty of options but it is not very friendly when it comes to tracking success of your RSS feed.

If you are serious about your blog – you owe it to yourself to get free account with Feedburner. It provides you with so many options for tracking, email subscription to your feed, multimedia, analysis and optimization that I highly recommend getting it. You can see it in action on my site and while you are at it – feel free to subscribe (a shameless plug but hey, it’s my page)

• Feedburner FeedSmith– this plugin highly recommended (read required) if you will be using Feedburner to manage your subscriptions. Forwards all feed traffic to Feedburner while letting through some important User-Agents.

• What Would Seth Godin Do – an excellent plugin that will greatly increase number of your RSS subscribers. Highly customizable it does one thing very well – when your visitors arrive to your site they are presented with an option to subscribe to your feed, auto inserted into posts and pages. Number of visits required for this message to disappear easily set through options in admin panel to prevent annoying your frequent readers. A great substitute to this plugin is my new favorite – WP Greet Box that includes all the options PLUS a lot more

• Subscribe To Comments – Allows readers to receive notifications of new comments that are posted to an entry. It is very common option when you topic becomes viral (you lucky dog!)
• Comment Relish – Increases your readership and RSS subscription rate by simply sending a short ‘thank you’ relishing type message to users when they first comment on your weblog
