4. Your RSS Feed
Your RSS Feed is sometimes the only way your visitors
experience what you have to offer on a regular basis.
It serves to inform and entertain, but is also an essential tool for
driving traffic back to your website and improving your overall
search-engine ranking.
Feedburner is the top RSS feed delivery service. It’s owned by
Google, provides extensive traffic analysis and offers feed
reader and email subscription options that you won’t find
anywhere else for a cost of zero dollars.

need for your RSS Feed to be successful.
5. Setting Up Your Account
1. Go to Feedburner and sign in to Feedburner with your Google Account (create a Google
Account first if you don’t have one!).
2. Add your Blog URL to the Burn a Feed Right This Instant and click Next.
(On WordPress sites, the URL of the
feed for the blog is usually:
http://www.mysite.com/feed or
http://www.mysite.com/blog/feed.
Test the URL in a browser before
entering it in Feedburner. This is your
site’s raw feed URL)
3. Leave RSS 2.0 source selected
and click Next.
6. Setting Up Your Account
4. On “Welcome” page, make sure you
are happy with the title and
FeedBurner address (URI) of your
new feed and then click Next.
5. On the Congrats! page click Next
6. On the stats configuration page select
Clickthroughs and I want more! and then
click Next.
7. Analyze Your Feed
You will be presented with a page that has several
tabs across the top. Since your feed is new, you will
not have any data in the Analyze tab. But check back
in a few days, or a few weeks, and you’ll see activity,
depending on how many subscribers you gain.
To access a feed that is already burned, simply click
its blue title after you log in.
8. Optimize Your Feed
Click on the Optimize tab.
Then click on the SmartFeed
link in the left column, as
shown below.
Click the Activate button. This
will optimize your feed for the
device on which it is being
read, like a mobile device or a
laptop.
9. Publicize Your Feed
Click the Publicize tab at the top.
Click BuzzBoost in the left column and Activate it. This will republish
your feed in an HTML version for any devices that can accept it that
way. In other words, it will look more like your actual blog post.
Next, click Ping Shot in the left column and Activate it. This will notify all
participating services, including search engines like Google, that you
have a new post available.
Click Email Subscriptions next. This is where you get the code to make
your feed available via email.
For more info on the rest of these features check out this informative
blog post I found.
10. Using Your Feed Links
Now you have three feed URLs.
• The first is the raw feed from your site.
• The second is the feed URL you received when you
burned your feed.
• The third is the URL for the email subscription.
Each feed URL has a purpose. If you are offering
subscriptions directly on your site, use the two from
Feedburner.
If you want to send your feed to other apps and
platforms, such as Facebook, use the site’s raw feed
URL.
11. Feedburner
There are plenty of people out there hungry for the
info you have on your site that will subscribe to your
RSS feed.
It’s a great way to stay on top of what’s happening in
your industry so I suggest first, if you haven’t
already, set your site up so people can subscribe to
your RSS feed via Feedburner and second, get out
there and subscribe to some of your own favorite
sites.
