Tweet

Feedburner is a service owned by Google which allow users to subscribe to Blog Posts, the method is straight forward, simply you make an account with Feedburner. (If you're using Blogger for blogging, then Google Blogger will do it auto for you). Once you integrate email subscription Box (Google Blogger allow you to simply add a Gadget in the Layout area), then whenever your readers signed up to your RSS Feeds via Email subscription form, then they will receive each and every post from your blog when published. But there's a problem, By default your email subscribers are receiving Full Posts, which is not effective in two ways, one for the owner of blog, (Why you're delivering complete post? why not they receive short posts because if they are interested then they will click on post title and will read your post, thus you get visitors from feedburner). Second for subscribers, why they are receiving long posts -what if- they not interested in that post? Short posts contain about 150 characters. actually i had an example of email post, but since i deleted it, Let me show you another example to clear the idea.
