After reading ‘40 Effective Methods To Build Your Loyal Army of RSS Subscribers‘ over at Etienneteo.com. I decided to pick out the 8 that I believe to be the most effective, and bring them to your attention.
Etienneteo.com is a blog about making money online and if you have not done so already I would suggest that you take a look, there are some great posts.
These are the top 8 tips for increasing your RSS Subscriptions that I found on Etienneteo.com:
- Have a large RSS button near the top of your blog.
- Allow readers to subscribe via Email.
- Use Feedburner to reduce the number of steps your visitors need to take in order to subscribe to your feed.
- If you have more than 200 subscribers, show off your subscriber count.
- Write a guest post on a blog with an RSS subscriber count higher than your own.
- Start an RSS competition with a blog that has a subscriber count close to yours, then encourage your visitors to subscribe to help you win the competition.
- Use the Subscribe Me Plugin for WordPress, which lets you display a chicklet on your blog asking your visitors to subscribe to your post.
- Use the Subscribe Reminder Plugin, this plugin places a reminder underneath each post on your blog.
Let us know if you have tried any of these tips, and dont forget to check out the original post here:
