Increase Your RSS subscribers With What Would Seth Godin Do WordPress Plugin
ADVERTISEMENTSI have wrote about many WordPress plugins in the past. Here is one that could help increase your blog’s subscribers. What would Seth Godin do plugin displays a message for first time visitors asking them to subscribe to your blog’s feed (uses cookies).
By default the message shown is "If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!" and disappears after three visits.
I have been using this plugin for the past few days on my hardware review blog. Here’s a screenshot of it in action:
Installation is easy. All you have to do is upload the what_would_seth_godin_do.php file to your plugins folder and activate it. The plugin also allows you to customize the message, its lifespan, and its location.
Download the What would Seth Godin do plugin from here.

This is nice, but why should we need it.

You don’t really need it but it is a great tool to get visitors to subscribe. Sometimes people need that extra little incentive to click on the subscribe button and this plugin does it.
Do remember that it won’t bug your visitors if they come back more than once so it’s great for getting new visitors.

Wouldn’t it be really annoying to visitors, especially first time visitors, I know it would annoy me and I would probably leave that web site lol
