Bumping up the numbers

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I’m sure that most of you who blog and pay attention to the number of subscribers your RSS feed has saw a nice little bump in those numbers now that Google is reporting subscriber counts for Google Reader and Personalized start pages. Today in my Feeburner stats I saw Google go from “fetching the feed” once a day, and only being counted once, to having 172 subscribers using Google. That actually boosted the number of feed subscribers significantly higher that I anticipated when I started using Feedburner to get a better idea of how many people were reading the blog last month. Very interesting, indeed.

  • Blogger explains itself

    Blogger explains itself, concerning the recent problems with publishing. Seems they have too much load on their servers. I haven’t been able to publish for most of the day, bummer. Evan is working on a permanent solution. Hope he finds one, and that blogger can stay free for it’s users. (Or at least inexpensive!) That…

  • Image Inject WordPress Plugin

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    If you’re interested in adding images to your WordPress posts, you could do worse than the Image Inject plugin. First, yes a plugin that injects things into your WordPress install does sound a bit scary. But, putting the name aside, what it does is add a search box to your post editor screen. Simply enter…
