Second step in SEO to promote a wordpress blog
The second step in promoting a wordpress blog is using FeedBurner services.
FeedBurner is the leading provider of media distribution and audience engagement services for blogs and RSS feeds. Our Web-based tools help bloggers, podcasters and commercial publishers promote, deliver and profit from their content on the Web.
More exactly by using FeedBurner services on your blog, visitors and readers can subscribe to your rss feeds by email.
Feedburner offers much more interesting tools to promote your articles.
To put is in simple terms, Feedburner is a feed “enhancer”. It takes your default wordpress feed, and adds more functionality to it without you having to modify it yourself.
If you’ve already had your blog up for some time, chances are your readers may have already subscribed to your default RSS feed. Since you’re using Feedburner, it’s a good idea to make sure everyone is reading the same RSS feed.
Once you’re set-up with Feedburner, you can activate all the cool functions, such as allowing your readers to subscribe via email, and also the Feedburner “Flares”.
Once you’ve activated the Flares, they will appear in your RSS feed.
There’s only one disadvantage of using Feedburner: you lose control of your RSS feed.
Imagine if you already have thousands of subscribers via Feedburner, and you decide to stop using it (or switch to a similar service) for whatever reason. You won’t be able to transfer those readers to your new service easily as your Feedburner version has already been published on the Internet on tons of different sites and sources.
That fact aside, using Feedburner will ultimately make your life a whole lot easier. To sign-up, just go to www.Feedburner.com.
