Increase Your Blog’s Subscribers By Offering Email Subscription

As there are still many people who do not know what RSS is, offering an Email Subscription form on your blog is a good way to get those people to subscribe. For those who have not done it yet, here’s how to do it:

• Login to your FeedBurner account
• Click on your Feed title
• Click ‘Email Subscription’ on the Publicize Tab

Once there choose Feedburner or FeedBlitz to be your feed-via-email service provider. After activating the service, you will get the HTML code for the subscription form that you should copy and paste to your blog.

Notify Unconfirmed Subscribers

Before a reader can get your post delivered to their inbox, they must first click an activation link that Feedburner or FeedBlitz sends them. Some people might forget to activate their subscription and thus they are not counted as a subscriber of your blog.

If you use Feedburner as your feed-via-email service provider, you will be able to find your unconfirmed subscribers easily. To get these unconfirmed subscribers to confirm, all you have to do is send them a friendly email reminding them to confirm their subscription.

If you find too many unconfirmed subscribers, it can be tough to email all of them. This is were Keith’s Notify Unconfirmed Subscribers WordPressPlugin (NUS) comes handy.

The plugin asks you for your FeedBurner username and password and fetches all those unconfirmed subscribers allowing you to send a personalized email to them asking them to verify their subscriptions.

FeedBlitz however don’t seem to show the unconfirmed subscribers. Does anyone know how a FeedBlitz user can find the unconfirmed subscribers?
