Keep your Feedburner settings updated

A reminder to keep your Google Feedburner RSS settings updated for your feed. There are several great options for your feed under the Optimize and Publicize tabs that you'll want activitated for pretty much any blog. You don't just want to setup your account and leave it alone. Dig into these options and experiment with it. Under publicize, I would definitely recommend allowing email subscriptions to your feed. This can be done by just activitating the option and you can even set it to notify you by email if anyone unsubscribes to your feed. Under optimize, there are four that I would recommend initially:
  • Browser Friendly - This allows people who use different feed readers to easily view your content. Such programs as NewsGater, NetVibes, etc.
  • Smart Feed - This automatically converts your feed into a format compatible with your viewers feed reader.
  • Feed Flare - This gives you many options for your readers to share or actually interact with your feed on the spot.
  • GeoTag - Automatically tags your feed with location-specifc information.
Selecting, at minimum, these options will at least get you a good start with your feed. But keep experimenting, and check back, they may actually throw some updates in there.
