Providing RSS feeds and email updates keeps readers abreast of recent content. Feedburner makes creating RSS feeds and email update links easy.
Create Feed

- If you don't already have a Google account, create one at this time.
- On Feedburner's main page, enter your blog address in the text box below the content that reads, "Burn a feed right this instant. Type your blog or feed address here:" and click "next".
- You will then be sent to a confirmation page where you will see your newly generated feed address.
Look up RSS Feed Address
- To view your feed address, visit Feedburner.com and choose the feed title.
- Click on the top left "Edit Feed Details."
- You will then see "original feed" and "feed address". Either one of these address can be used as your RSS feed.

Your timing is perfect...one of the items on my to-do-list was figure out how to get this on my blog...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Becky Jane
Becky Jane,
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the email updates from Feedburner. I used to send out a weekly newsletter but it was time consuming. Feedburner sends out updates daily automatically. If you have any questions, let me know.
Thanks...I'm all set up and ready to have email subscribers. Your instructions were great!
ReplyDeleteDo you know how to do Facebook and Twitter follower widgets?
