Another milestone reached :)
According to FeedBurner statistics, my RSS feed had exactly 5000 subscribes on June 30th.
Disclaimer: The Feedburner subscriber count is a notoriously unreliable measure, as it tries to estimate the actual number of subscribers for on-line services that cache the feeds (for example, Google Reader) … but the result is nonetheless quite nice.
6 comments:
Google Reader reports 28 subscribers and 5,1 posts a week.
Simply had to try the Google Reader myself. Here are the stats reported for various URLs through which my RSS feed is reachable:
http://ioshints.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
(obsolete): 2544 subscribers
http://blog.ioshints.info/feeds/posts/default
596 subscribers
http://feeds.feedburner.com/CiscoIosHintsAndTricks
(redirect to FeedBurner) 243 subscribers
And thanks for uncovering another interesting Google Reader behavior (it does not check where the actual feed resides).
One more actually, because I have: http://feeds2.feedburner.com/CiscoIosHintsAndTricks
Živjo Ivan,
One of the most valuable Cisco networking resources irrespectively of the numbers :)
Cheers, Pete
I keep your RSS as a Firefox "live bookmark", this may not appear in the stats?
@Pete: Nice to hear from someone in my local language ;)
@Anonymous#2: Feedburner reports 230+ users using Firefox live bookmarks (and only 19 of them use FeedReader like I do). What counts is that your RSS agent periodically fetches the feed.
