RSS Subscription Campaign
I’ve made a couple subtle changes to improve my RSS subscriptions in the past week. I’ve added a link at the top of the page, I’ve added a couple links within some posts asking for subscriptions, and I started taking advantage of the feedburner FeedFlare tool. All of these changes have had a slight effect on my subscriptions, but nothing near the wow factor that I’d like to see.
It’s time to pull out the big guns, or big button; should I say? I’ve seen this button on other blogs and it makes me want to subscribe, so here it goes.
They say you need to make your RSS feed button visible. I’d say that has now been accomplished.
A higher RSS subscription rate would mean more money from ReviewMe, which would be nice. Not just a higher rate per review, but also a higher ranking which would lead to more reviews, hopefully. For those that do subscribe and visit daily, you will see content that reflects my new initiative of providing tips of how to make money at home. A majority of my past posts indirectly relate to making money at home by giving tips to improve your blog and get more members.
If you are under the impression that you don’t have time to read one more blog, you should read my article on RSS Feeds - Bloglines to see how easy it can be to subscribe to many blogs and stay up-to-date on a daily basis.

It’s not called “World’s biggest RSS button” for no reason
As a new blogger there is something I am trying to get clear in my head regarding RSS feeds. Based on the reading I have done so far people reading a feed in a feed reader is going to result in lower revenue from advertising. Is there an expectation that some of these readers are in fact going to click through to the actual page or are serious bloggers happy to get their readership up regardless of actual visits to the web page?

If you write provocative articles, your readers will regularly click into your site to post comments. I am encouraged just by seeing my readership increase via feeds. However, once you increase your readers, feedburner allows you to place ads directly in your feeds.
