You made it! This is the last Blogger’s Guide to Feedburner post, and I’m sure your pimped-out feed is drawing new subscribers like flies. OK, getting subscribers isn’t that easy, but at least you’ve got a great feed. So far we’ve set up your feed in Feedburner, familiarized ourselves with the Feedburner site, learned how to analyze and troubleshootize your feed, optimized your feed with extra features, and publicized your feed to other web sites. All that’s left, is networkizing and monetizing your feed.

The paint is dry, the rims are in place, and I’m not getting any better at this car analogy, so let’s get to work. To review, so far we’ve set up your feed in Feedburner, familiarized ourselves with the web site, learned how to analyze and troubleshootize your feed, and picked out some sweet options to really make it shine. Today, we’re going to publicize your feed. To get started, log in to Feedburner, select a feed, and click on the Publicize tab.

You’ve stuck through the first two Blogger’s Guide to Feedburner posts, and now the fun begins! Today we’ll optimize your feed, which is like putting a fresh coat of paint and shiny rims on a pimped-out car. To get started, log in to Feedburner, choose a feed to work with, and click the Optimize tab.

Sweet! You’ve returned to further pimp out your RSS feed! Last week, we set up the feed and familiarized ourselves with the Feedburner interface, and today we’ll start analyzing and troubleshootizing your feed. For today’s post, your feed needs to be working. Is it?

If you hang around the blogosphere long enough, you’re going to run into Feedburner, a sort of Pimp My Ride for RSS feeds. Feedburner lets you track your feed subscribers, add flare to each item, recruit subscribers, and make money from your feed. In my Blogger’s Guide to Feedburner series, I’ll help you set up your own Feedburner feed and dissect the service with you. In this post, we’ll set up your feed and familiarize ourselves with the Feedburner interface. Interested?
