An opt in list is useless without a large and targeted amount of traffic. However, the definition of large varies from niche to niche. For example, 200 visitors a day might be enough for some niches but not others.

Hi Dave, No, can’t provide that data. With all the jumping around of feedburner stats I wouldn’t feel confident giving you any raw numbers I knew were correct.

However it’s something I think every blog should have – it makes a lot of sense to drive people to your RSS feed as the main subscription option.

Nice find Yaro. ON the subject of feeds, do you know what % your feed subscription went up after adding the “Like this article? Subscribe to my RSS feed.” below each post?

Hmmmm, handy.

I’d personally steer clear of the different colour options that are offered in the customise section.

Orange helps people find your icon faster, and best to make it as easy as possible.
