After being acquired by Google last month, FeedBurner has been doing pretty well. First, they made all pro services to be available for free and now they’ve made it possible to redirect your Blogger feed to FeedBurner.

If you are hosted on Blogger or use Blogger’s custom domain feature, you can now redirect the traffic from your Blogger feed to your FeedBurner feed. This is feature comes really handy, if some of your subscribers are using your Blogger feed. By redirecting, you’ll be able to track all your subscribers through FeedBurner (even those who are reading your old Blogger feed). You’ll be counting everyone, so your subscribers count may increase.

Those running self-hosted WordPress blog(s) don’t need be jealous because there is already a plugin available which redirects your feed traffic to FeedBurner.

  1. Just moved to self hosted Wordpress blog :D

  2. Hey Thilak, isnt it FeedSmith now? And so the link should be to?

    Can you write a tut on how to add rel nofollow to the more tags on homepage? and also how to do the same on top commentators list ;)

  3. TechZilo: Thanks for the quick update, I was never aware of the name change. And regarding the tuts for adding nofollow, it simple edit and add process. Just edit your plugins, do some searching and add nofollow tag wherever necessary. Plain and Simple.

  4. Automatic redirecting is really a good features to track actual subscribers.

  5. Good to see blogger improving. But they need to change the commenting system.

  6. Yeah, I find it really annoying to comment on Blogger powered blogs. Popup + Captcha. Worst of all, it https and doesn’t remember our credentials like all other blogs do. I remember Amit Agarwal do something to simplify this on his blog, but I’m not sure why he reverted it back.

  7. Thanks for the help, Thilak.
    I still don’t get how to add nofollow to the more tag on homepage. Can you tell me?

  8. I use a plugin called Evermore. It automatically cuts down the post to show just first paragraph with links and images. By default, the plugin adds nofollow tag to the link. Let me know, if this helps.
