  1. Congrats anand! 2500 is HUGE :)

    Can you share the secret of turbo-charging the RSS numbers..? I am stuck at 230 :P

    Check my post on 2 ways to increase feed subscribers on the right side…. :) That should give you an idea.

  3. I have a smaller version of that on my blog after the post. I should try adding the email form as such.

    btw, In Feedblitz, (the newsletter that I use), you cannot access the email address of the subscribers before they confirm. Thats one drawback :(

    Wow man! Congrats.

    You are making your way to the A-list…

    …and remember – more followers means more responsibility.

    @ Arun, why do you use them? any preferences compared to feedburner?

    @ Niyaz, I understand that, makes me scared!

  6. I started off on Feedblitz, now cant move back. Over 75% of my readers are via email, if I move, I will have to start from groud zero now..

    A dedicated service has some advantages though: http://www.quickonlinetips.com/archives/2008/08/feedblitz-or-feedburner/

    You have already read that :P

    Feedblitz has lots of option, which I have never used. But its good to know that there are options.

    One more advantage: Even if Feedburner closes down some day, I will have a good share of my readers :)

    That day will never come, I know.. :P

    1) in ur about me (should have been us) u started of praising ananda extreme talent but then all of a sudden u werereddening ur own a##…… dude get a life..

    2) most of the articles(plagiarism is the word kiddo) are not yours…. whats with ya brain.. stop watching youporn and other crap websites.. get a life and get real…. if u cant do that check out ya frnd kenny jacobs profile .. he is a genius.. useful and inetersting guy with the right state of mind……. u are just a … good for nothing “F”ing trap

    3)not just u but even ur frnds(the close knit ones) force ppl to subscribe to ur ws.. which really makes u a hero…..

    4)i wasted two hours expecting something to creep up good and what i got was trash.. utter trash…’
