Fluctuating subscriptions from Feedburner

Written by: Ollie Style

I have a dream of having at least 1000 email and RSS subscribers combined by the end of the year. But the way things are going I will be lucky if my readers reach at least 100 readers by the end of the year. I started using Feedburner just last February and the highest number of subscribers I got is 22 which went down to 20 as of yesterday and now I only have 18 subscribers. I guess my readers doesn't like what I am blogging about.

During the first few days I had feed burner I was talking about anything, from personal things, websites, scholarships, and even “Friendster”. I noticed that my blog entry which I entitled “Friendster Nation” actually took in 13 subscribers, but as I posted what I wanted to write about which is affiliate marketing, business, and some other stuff I like, my Feedburner subscribers fluctuated from 13 to 17 then back to 13 subscribers within a 5 week period. And then a few days ago I posted Traits of millionaires non millionaires should imitate This post pulled up my subscription to 22 Feedburner readers, but now I only have 18 subscribers via Feedburner I don't know the reason behind the decline but it's probably because I did a blog fast this past few days.

Unlike face to face marketing where you could get your answers to your marketing questions immediately Internet marketing or RSS blog subscriptions is totally different you can not see the facial expressions of your subscribers, you won't be able to see if they raised their eyebrows or if they crossed their arms while reading your latest blog entry. The only time you will realize that your readers do not like what they are reading is when you look at your subscription the following day and find less subscribers.

I guess I need to ask you a question once in a while? If you like what you are seeing in my blog. Maybe you could also leave a comment so that I will know.

I have a long way to go in order to reach my goal of getting at least a thousand combined subscribers from Feedblitz and Feedburner. I may or may not reach that goal but I'm so happy that you are reading my humble blog THANK YOU SO MUCH...
