4 - Create a feed for others to follow, Feedburner

Once you are thrivingly shouting your opinions at the world, I know, nothing can stop you, well maybe if you need to take a big crap, NO, not even then! Imagine somebody now enters your blog, he/she reads a few posts and thinks they are of quality. He/she thinks that they are of enough quality that they would actually like to read every new post that you decide to write on your blog.

The thing is that from what I have heard, life is a busy business. These people already like a handful of other blogs and to enter each blog's page everyday to see if a post has been written can be very tiresome, next to impossible.

The solution to this is an RSS feed. You need to create an rss feed on your page that will let these great readers of yours to sign up to your blog. The result is that whenever you post something new, it will appear on one of their preferred readers, be it googlereader, myahoo etcc.

So now, sign up to Feedburner and follow the instructions within it. At some point you will have to insert a piece of code within blogger html widget to create that rss feed link. Now do it!

Sounds awesome! It seems like we can make the most of our feed. Especially it's cool that we can see tracking data about our subscribers in detail. I'm going to keep a quick research on feedburner a bit more and start using this in my blog!
