Interesting thought to put another RSS button right beneath the post. I’ll have to try that.

Thanks for the comments folks. I agree delivering on your promises is a big factor, and in many niches full feeds are essential though I would say in more mainstream and low-tech niches it might not impact quite as much.

Nothing disappoints me more than subscribing to a new blog only to find partial feeds. It’s the quickest way to lose me.

Great tips, Chris.

very true points…

all these surely help you get your RSS readers run up…

one mistake which I am doing is leaving an RSS link above my post not under. I think I will shift that to below the posts!!!

I’m going to have to try the feed below the posts and see if that adds some oomph to subscriptions.

I did away with all of my chicklets and switched to plain RSS, my subscriptions went up.

Also, don’t forget to turn on autodiscovery! That’s a big one for some Firefox, Opera and Safari users that use their browser as their RSS reader.

Some really nice tips here. We’re looking to grow our subscription count and while we’re on the right track in general, the email and feed location advice seem really sensible. Thanks.
